Abstract:
The present article provides the interim results of the grant project “Veterinary and
sanitary control and monitoring assessment of migration of heavy metals in the food
chain "water-soil-feed-products"” to the study of heavy metal pollution of soil and
plant-based forages on the territory of Almaty region of. The levels of Hg, Cd, Pb, andAs
have been defined in the arable layer of soils in the basic farms. The compounds of toxic
elements in forages used in the diets of milking cows have been monitored.Main types
of soil, feed (hay, silage, haylage, concentrates) served as research materials. The toxic
elements in all objects of the research have been analyzed using a novAA350 atomic
absorption spectrometer and a TaLab voltammetrican alyser. The laboratory
researches have been carried out in the Kazakh-Japanese Innovation Center under the
