Tell Washington that Pesticides are Critical to Agriculture

Unfortunately, there is misinformation that suggests pesticides negatively impact health.

But here’s the truth:

The Environmental Protection Agency heavily regulates pesticides to ensure they meet strict safety standards. These regulations protect public health while allowing American farmers to grow the food we all rely on — affordably and sustainably.

If pesticides are restricted based on fear instead of facts, the consequences could be:

• Higher food prices
• Economic harm to farmers
• Risks to food security

This is why farmers’ voices are essential.
