Welcome to the Center for Chemical Pesticides (CKB)

The Centre for Chemical Pesticides (CKB) is a partnership forum within the area of chemical pesticides for researchers at SLU and interested parties outside the university. The Centre focuses mainly on the environmental impact of pesticides used within agriculture. CKB co-ordinates knowledge improvement, long-term development of skills, environmental monitoring, analytical expertise, education and information within the area.

"CKB shall develop knowledge that allows the effects of chemical pesticides on the environment to be described and predicted in a reliable way and that this knowledge shall lead to countermeasures so that the impact on the environment lies within acceptable limits." (From CKB’s mission statement).
