Resumen:
Argentina has large regions with excellent aptitude for agricultural activities, nevertheless, in some areas suffer development limitations due to the availability of water and the quality of the resource. One of the chemical elements present in the water, with major impact on the human and animal health, is arsenic. The affected region includes the provinces of Córdoba, La Pampa, Santiago del Estero, San Luis, Santa Fe, Buenos Aires, Chaco, Salta, Tucumán, San Juan and Mendoza. The aim of this work is to analyze the presence and distribution of the arsenic in water and soils in rural areas of Bell Ville in the southeast of Córdoba province, one of the most affected zones of Argentina for the presence of arsenic in water.
