Plant protection products in groundwater (NAQUA National Groundwater Monitoring)
Plant protection products are chemicals that protect plants from pests or kill weeds. They are not only used in agriculture, but also in green spaces and private gardens, where they enter groundwater. Under the Waters Protection Ordinance (WPO), concentrations of plant protection products in groundwater should not exceed 0.1 micrograms/l .Concentrations of various plant protection products in Swiss groundwater are recorded as part of the NAQUA National Groundwater Monitoring program. The national groundwater monitoring network includes more than 500 monitoring sites and is run by the FOEN in close collaboration with the cantons.
