Pesticides and food safety

To be healthy, we need to eat a variety of foods, especially fresh fruits and vegetables. Pesticides play an important role in making sure there is enough food for everyone, by protecting crops from pests like insects, weeds, and fungal diseases. While pesticides help protect our food supply, some people have concerns about pesticide residue that may be on the food they eat.
