The Pesticide Data Program has been serving the agricultural community for 25 years and is considered the “gold standard” for pesticide residue data. PDP is an important tool for informing the public about pesticide residues on agricultural products and is used by the EPA for evaluating pesticide exposure and setting tolerances. The perspectives of stakeholders and other members of the public are critical tools to help PDP examine and prioritize its activities and objectives in order to continue to provide critical pesticide residue data. The USDA is seeking feedback from stakeholders on the program considering current agricultural practices and needs as well as the changing regulatory environment.
