On Saturday February 25, President Emmanuel Macron spent the day at the Paris Agricultural Show. He took the opportunity to announce a new plan on pesticides, intended to coordinate the actions of France with those of its neighbors. Where are we on the use of pesticides and their restrictions in France? What impact do they have on human health? What are the alternatives and what about the situation globally?
