PAN.
I have asked this question before because
I would like to know more about the amounts of pesticides used in
stead of there total amounts in dollars.
How many pesticides is a dollar or is the total figure higher because
prices got higher, For me there is nothing to compare these figures
with.
Sorry to be critical
