This study shows that two decades of EU pesticide substitution have not reduced environmental harm to stream invertebrates, as toxic pressure and impairment remained stable over time.

The paper assesses the ecological status of small agricultural streams in Germany, finding 58% show high pesticide exposure and 65% fail to meet hydromorphological standards.

This study shows that agricultural pesticides do not affect the infectivity or development of Schistosoma mansoni in its snail host at environmentally relevant concentrations.
