On October 20, 2025, the Pesticides Atlas (in Dutch: Bestrijdingsmiddelenatlas) has been updated with the monitoring data of 2024. There are active substances that have an application as plant protection product as well as an application as biocide. The Pesticide Atlas specifically distinguishes between the authorization thresholds for both categories.
For dossiers submitted from January 1st, 2026 onwards, Ctgb requests that the data of 2024 are included in the analysis of monitoring data in the national addendum for Fate and behaviour (Part B, section 8).
The Ctgb always bases the assessment on the most recent monitoring data at the time of evaluation.
In addition, data in the substance lists of the Pesticide atlas are used to establish for which substances additional label restrictions are required to prevent stacking of products (see policy note (in Dutch)) and/or a product reassessment regarding exposure of surface water is triggered (see policy decree).
