Pesticide News Story: National Pesticide Information Center (NPIC) en Español
For Release: October 29, 2008
NPIC has launched a Spanish language version of its Web site. The site is designed to mirror the English version, presenting original NPIC content and numerous pesticide resources in a user-friendly format. The development of more NPIC Web pages in Spanish will be ongoing.
NPIC is a cooperative effort of EPA and Oregon State University that provides objective, science-based information about a variety of pesticide-related subjects, including pesticide products, recognition and management of pesticide poisoning, toxicology, and environmental chemistry. The information NPIC provides help people make better-informed decisions about pesticides and their use. Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the United States, demonstrating the utility and importance of supplying pesticide information in Spanish.
The site is available at http://npic.orst.edu/index.es.html
