20.500.12556/DKUM-89396 Ozaveščenost potrošnikov in njihov odnos do ostankov pesticidov v hrani magistrsko delo Consumer awareness and attitude towards pesticide residues in food Uporaba pesticidov in njihovi ostanki v hrani so predmet številnih diskusij v Sloveniji in tujini. Za ublažitev pomislekov glede varnosti hrane je potrebno boljše razumevanje tveganj s strani javnosti, kar lahko dosežemo s spodbujanjem učinkovite komunikacije na področju javnega zdravja. Na drugi strani je pomembno vzpodbuditi pridelovalce hrane k uporabi bolj trajnostnih pristopov pridelave hrane. V ta namen je bila v Podravski regiji marca 2021 na priložnostnem vzorcu (n = 400) izvedena anketna raziskava, s katero se je proučevalo ozaveščenost potrošnikov in njihovo zaskrbljenost o ostankih pesticidov v hrani. Po njihovem mnenju kemikalije, predvsem pesticidi in toksini, najbolj ogrožajo varnost hrane. Vedeli so, da najdemo največ ostankov pesticidov v sadju in zelenjavi, ter po njihovem mnenju v hrani ne smejo biti prisotni. Večina potrošnikov je izrazila skrb in dejala, da se izogibajo hrani, ki vsebuje ostanke pesticidov. Zaskrbljenost glede ostankov pesticidov v hrani je bila statistično značilno višja pri ženskah kot pri moških. Poleg tega menijo, da je tveganje večje od prednosti njihove uporabe in da raje kupijo ekološko pridelane izdelke. Približno polovica jih je izrazila, da pogosto iščejo informacije, kar pomeni, da je varnost hrane pomembna skrb slovenskih potrošnikov. Treba bi bilo nadalje raziskati, kje so ovire, da potrošniki ne posegajo v večji meri po hrani, pridelani s čim manj intervencijami, in kako zmanjšati zaskrbljenost potrošnikov. The use of pesticides and their residues in food are the subject of numerous discussions in Slovenia and abroad. This requires a better understanding of risk perception among the public in order to promote effective public health communication and allay concerns about food safety. At the same time, efforts must be made to encourage food producers to adopt more sustainable approaches to food production. In March 2021, a survey was conducted with a convenience sample of 400 respondents (n=400) in the Podravje region to investigate awareness and concern about pesticide residues in food. According to the respondents, chemicals, including pesticides and toxins, pose the greatest threat to food safety. They were aware that the highest levels of pesticide residues are found in fruit and vegetables and believe that these residues should not be present in food. The majority of consumers expressed concern and stated that they avoid foods with pesticide residues. Concern about pesticide residues in food was statistically significantly higher among women than men. In addition, respondents believed that the risks of pesticide use outweighed the benefits of conventionally grown food and therefore preferred to buy organically grown produce. About half of the respondents stated that they frequently look up information, which emphasises the importance of food safety for Slovenian consumers. Further research is needed to identify the barriers that prevent consumers from choosing food with minimal intervention more often and how to alleviate consumer concerns. ostanki pesticidov splošna javnost obnašanje potrošnikov zaskrbljenost glede varnosti hrane dojemanje tveganja pesticide residues general public consumer behaviour food safety concerns risk perception true true false B.
