Protection of wild pollinators in the pesticide risk assessment and management


This research project investigated the current scientific knowledge on flower visiting insects with special attention on their ecology, their toxicological sensitivity and their exposure towards pesticides. On this basis the key elements for an environmental risk assessment for flower visiting insects have been discussed and the feasibility and effectiveness of risk management options, which have to be considered during the application of pesticides, have been assessed.
