I'm interested to know the permissible limit of different pesticides in agricultural soil?
Dear A.N. Singh,
You should look at the pesticide information profiles of Extoxnet:

By the way, permissible limit of a pesticide is determined by authorities of states. Thus, this is a variable notion.
Dear Singh,
The permissible limit of pesticide application may vary for different crops. I can only give you a brief idea on pesticide in tea. For details please have a look on the article below:

Dear Dr. Singh,
As per BIS Standards, permissible limits of selected pesticides in the soil are given below:
Aldrin: 0.03 ppb, 2,4 D: 2 ppb, Chlorpyriphos: 30 ppb, DDT: 1 ppb, Endosulfan: 0.4 ppb, Ethon: 3 ppb, Malathion: 190 ppb.

Hope this information is interesting and useful to you.

Dear Giuseppe Nano Sir...I Agree with your Andras Sir answer ....I'm so thankful to your +ve response...
The permissible level of pesticides vary from one another but this depends on the rate of decomposition by active population of soil microbes , the soil types[ clay ,sand ,silt and humus contents] and the rate of leaching into underground waters..besides the pesticides mentioned such as aldrin .malathion are banned and are no longer in use
