Pesticide Safety Education Programs (PSEPs)

Pesticide Safety Education Programs (PSEPs) are initiatives designed to teach farmers, applicators, and others how to use pesticides responsibly and safely. They provide essential information on proper handling, application techniques, storage, and disposal to reduce health risks and environmental impact. PSEPs also inform participants about regulations and safety precautions to prevent accidents. By promoting informed decision-making and safe practices, these programs help ensure pesticides are used effectively while protecting workers, communities, and ecosystems from potential harm.
