Abstract

Excessive and improper use of pesticides can pose a serious risk to human and animal health and cause environmental pollution. In order to protect the health of its consumers, the European Union has strict rules on pesticide residues, which must be complied with by all member states. The field of plant protection products and pesticide residues in food is at the level of the European Union, to the greatest extent, regulated by Regulation (EC) no. 1107/2009 and Regulation (EC) no. 396/2005. As scientific knowledge changes and upgrades, amendments to these regulations are adopted at the level of the European Union, as well as regulations for their implementation in all Member States. The Republic of Croatia, as a permanent member of the European Union, respects and consistently implements all regulations of the European Union. The paper presents the latest regulations related to pesticide residues in food and the importance of their control for food safety.
