Abstract

[Extract] Research funded by the Marine and Tropical Sciences Research Facility (MTSRF) sought to quantify the source, transport and impact of agricultural pesticides on Queensland’s aquatic and marine ecosystems. This summary report presents the details of the science outputs from this research over the period 2006 to 2010, which has advanced our knowledge of pesticides in North Queensland. This knowledge will allow for better decision making and appropriate prioritisation of pesticide management as part of an ongoing water quality improvement process being undertaken as part of the Reef Water Quality Protection Plan1.
