More information
Pesticide Action Network UK waorks to eliminate the use of hazardous pesticides, reduce dependence on pesticides and to increase the use of sustainable alternatives to chemical pest control in agriculture, urban areas, public health and homes and gardens. We publish independent information on pesticide use and impacts for governments and decision makers. We undertake and target research to promote better understanding of the cause and effects of pesticide problems. We undertake projects to demonstrate that growing food and textiles, and managing amenities, is possible without the use of hazardous pesticides. We also support projects with partners in developing countries to demonstrate the efficacy of organic and low input production as a means of providing farmers with economically viable, socially acceptable and environmentally sound livelihoods.
