About

Pesticides (trade) – refer to insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, disinfectants and others covered by the Harmonised Coding System (HS) code 3808. Data refer to the value of the trade expressed in 1000 USD.

Differences between figures given for total exports and total imports of any one commodity may be due to several factors, e.g. the time lag between the dispatch of goods from the exporting country and their arrival in the importing country; the use of a different classification of the same product by different countries; or the fact that some countries supply data on general trade while others give data on special trade.
