Today, chlordecone (CLD), anorganochlorine pesticide spread on the tocontrol populations theis health, political crisis in the French WestIndies FWI). the health measure simplemented by the authorities to CLD from reaching the consumer's plate, the population continues to be exposed. A definitive solution to the problem would be to destroy the CLD stockin the soil.
