การควบคุมการโฆษณาสารเคมีกำจัดศัตรูพืช

Abstract

The pesticide use is one of important problems of Thailand’s agricultural sector. One of key factors resulting to pesticide use in a wrong and overuse manner is “advertising”. This is because, nowadays,
the pesticide is exaggeratedly advertised, or it may lead to misunderstanding on the pesticide’s safety or efficiency. These advertisements can create a wrong attitude on pesticide use, and may cause careless use and overuse. However, there is no direct legal mechanism for regulations on pesticide advertising.
