The total production of apples of 11.96 million tonnes
was achieved in a planted area of 575,796 ha in the 25
European Union countries in 2005 (1).
Indicators of conventional use of pesticide in apples in
Europe are difficult to find in the scientific literature. We
opted to provide one case study on the national level (for
the UK) that might illustrate the current situation in conventional
apple production in Europe. The data originates from
a survey about the overall use, extent and quantities of
pesticides used in Great Britain in 2004 carried out by the
Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and
The Scottish Executive Environment and Rural Affairs
Department (9).
