We have estimated the efficiency of agricultural measures by the criterion of the individual total effective accumulated dose per average resident of the polluted areas of Belarus during the Post-Chernobyl period. We have calculated the share contribution of each of the three factors (physical half-life decay period, biogeochemical processes, counter-measures) in decreased radioactivity of milk being the main dose-forming factor. The annual effective doses of internal, external and total irradiation and their dynamics over 1987-2012 for mineral and peaty soils have been estimated.
