What is Heavy Metal Pollution in Dhaka Rivers about?

The study investigates the pollution levels of four rivers surrounding Dhaka city and their impact on the yield and heavy metal concentrations in rice and cabbage. Results indicate that river-water irrigation significantly reduces crop yields, with the highest heavy metal concentrations found in Buriganga river-water. The findings suggest that the polluted river-water should not be used for irrigation without proper treatment due to health risks associated with heavy metal uptake by crops.
