The article provides a scientific and theoretical analysis of the legislation of the USSR, Ukrainian legislation. Particular attention is paid to establishing features in the legal regulation of seizure, utilization, destruction and disposal of unusable or prohibited pesticides and agrochemicals and containers from them.
The authors conclude that today, given the need to improve the environment, more efforts are needed at the state level to utilize pesticides accumulated during the Soviet era, primarily to approve the state program with clear measures for its implementation and sources of funding.
Today, regional state administrations have the opportunity without the intervention of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine to solve problems with obsolete pesticides and agrochemicals, as well as to determine where it is most profitable to dispose of these substances. Thus, to date, the process of reducing unusable pesticides has been launched. It aims to improve the ecological situation in the country, help reduce the negative impact on people's lives and health, and allow agriculture to develop.
