Through cooperation with State agriculture departments and other Federal agencies, PDP manages the collection, analysis, data entry, and reporting of pesticide residues on agricultural commodities in the U.S. food supply, with an emphasis on those commodities highly consumed by infants and children."
- The Pesticide Action Network Pesticide Database: "...one-stop location for toxicity and regulatory information for pesticides. To find out more about insecticides, herbicides and other pesticides select one of the choices below."
- Their sister site, "What's On My Food?" has a scroll down box on the left hand side to select commercially gown food and pesticides used on it.
