Development and annual application of the risk indicator SYNOPS-TREND to assess and visualize the risk trend of the pesticide use on national level
Project
Project code: JKI-SF-08-0043
Contract period: 01.01.2012
- 31.12.2019
Purpose of research: Applied research
One target of the National Action Plan for sustainable use of plant protection products is to reduce the environmental risks that may arise from the use of plant protection products by 30% until 2013. The risk and the risk reduction is assessed annually with the indicator SYNOPS-TREND on the basis of domestic sales data of active ingredient in plant protection products. The model is continuously improved by integration of additional exposure pathways and reference organisms. Furthermore, the representative environmental scenarios for the risk assessments will be redefined.
