The article is devoted to the study of the features of the accumulation of fluorine in soil and plants
in the zone of influence of technogenesis. The topicality of the study of fluorine in the soil is due to the
properties of this element negatively to affect on human health through the trophic chains. The purpose
of the research was to determine the technogenic sources of fluorine intake in the agricultural area of the
Donetsk region and to study the factors affecting the ways and levels of fluoride accumulation in soil and
plants. The methodological basis of the study consists of the following methods: field, laboratory, measuring,
calculation and comparison, graphical data display. Along with the well-known methods used some
special: analysis and synthesis. The studies were conducted using certified and standardized in Ukraine
methodologies and methodological approaches. Analytical measurements of fluoride content were carried
out in straw, grain and soil samples, which were taken from the arable layer at the same time as the plant
samples. Selection of soil and plant samples was carried out from the arable layer in accordance with the
current requirements and recommendations. Statistical processing of the results was carried out in accordance
with the «Methodology of field experience» B.A. Dospehova.
Based on the analysis of statistical data on emissions from industrial enterprises, it is determined
that technogenic sources of fluorine pollution of agrolandscapes of Donetsk region are metallurgy and
power engineering. These enterprises supply around 200 tons of fluorine per year to the environment. At
a distance of up to 5 km, the concentration of water-soluble form of fluorine in the soil exceeds the MPC
(10 mg/kg) by 1,5 to 3 times. When removed, the content of soluble forms is reduced. Outside the technogenic
impact (10–15 km), the concentration of water-soluble form of fluorine in the soil practically does
not exceed the MPC. It is established that the greatest amount of fluorine is contained in the vegetative
mass and least of all in the grain. High sensitivity to fluorine was observed in barley and corn, for which
the fluorine content exceeded the recommended standard by 2-2,5 times. Winter wheat and sunflower were
less sensitive to fluorine. The content of the element in the grain of these crops did not exceed the norm or
was on the verge. There was no excess of the normative content of fluorine (15 mg/ kg) in the by-products
of agricultural crops that were studied.
