Fig. 8: Global map of herbicide risk scores (RSs).
From: Herbicide leakage into seawater impacts primary productivity and zooplankton globally
The map has a spatial resolution of 5 arcmin, which is approximately 10 km × 10 km at the equator. The pie charts represent the fraction of agricultural land classed under different RSs in each region, and the values in parentheses above the pie charts denote the total amount of agricultural land in those regions. Herbicides data in each grid cell was based on the usage of 52 herbicides that are currently being widely used worldwide from the PEST-CHEMGRIDSv1 global database. Source data are provided as a Source Data file. we first tried to retrieve the average usage data of 52 herbicides that are currently being widely used worldwide from the PEST-CHEMGRIDSv1 global database.
