Created by Pesticide Action & Agroecology Network (PAN), the Pesticide Info Database is a one-of-a-kind resource that combines publicly available data to create an interactive, searchable database of every chemical and product related to pesticide use and application.
This unique online tool brings together a diverse array of information on pesticides from many sources, providing human toxicity (chronic and acute), ecotoxicity and regulatory information and more for about 15,300 pesticide active ingredients and their transformation products, including solvents and other additives used in pesticide products.
The database of pesticide active ingredients is integrated with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) product database, which provides information on formulated products containing active ingredients. Information is most complete for pesticides registered for use in the United States, and use data is most extensive for California which requires pesticide use reporting.
Pesticide Info data presentation also reflects human expertise; scientists and toxicologists interpret and evaluate the data in every update. For more details, see PAN's Sources and Methodology page.
