Summary in the original language of the document

The goal of this study was to obtain an overview about pesticides residues on food and the handling of residue cases by farmers, companies, label organisations and competent authorities in Europe. For that, an internet-based, anonymous survey was developed. The survey was completed by 130 actors from 24 countries, including various EU countries but also non-EU countries like Switzerland, UK and Norway.
