Biological magnification: the process by which pollutants become more concentrated in successive trophic levels of a food web (accumulation of pollutants in fatty tissues of a predator) Humans are often more severely affected than earlier trophic levels due to biological magnification. The ppm (parts per million) is the unit of measurement for concentration of chemicals like pollutants and augment to a degenerative degree in higher trophic levels. Humans are consumers and higher in the food web, thus subject to the malicious effects of biological magnification of toxins.
There are several solutions to addressing biological magnification of pesticides. One approach is to encourage organic farming practices, which avoid the use of synthetic pesticides altogether. Additionally, implementing integrated pest management strategies can help reduce reliance on chemical pesticides by utilizing alternative methods such as crop rotation, natural predators, and mechanical pest control. Finally, strict regulation and monitoring of pesticide use can help prevent excessive accumulation of toxic compounds in the environment.

we can solve the concentration of biological magnification if produce less DDT
