Criticial UK report on pesticide drift
A highly critical UK report on pesticide exposure of residents in crops spraying areas
01.08.2006 |Sascha Gabizon
A report recently published in the UK provides an overview on how the health of residents and bystanders has been affected by the spraying of agricultural pesticides. It also criticizes the lack of
precautionary measures when passive exposure to pesticides is concerned and deplores the poor existing data.
The report entitled Crop spraying and the health of residents and bystanders is available.
For a summary, see the EEN article.
