Overview

Observational analysis demonstrates heavy metal accumulation in dairy buffaloes, highlighting substantial food safety risks from contaminated water.

Key Points

  • Contaminated irrigation water drives heavy metals accumulation in agricultural soil, forage crops, and livestock milk across rural farming regions.
  • Nickel concentrations in buffalo milk peaked at 7.22 ppm, and water chromium levels reached 40.07 ppm across the most polluted sampling locations.
  • Assessment across seven sites tracked contamination transfer from water to fodder, highlighting substantial health risk index values in the food chain.
