This document provides an updated review of pesticide residues from the 2023 Joint FAO/WHO Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) held in Washington, DC. The report covers developments in pesticide risk assessment, dietary exposure analysis, and regulatory guidelines. It evaluates over 30 pesticides, establishing MRLs, ADIs, and ARfDs, and addressing concerns about food safety and environmental health. The meeting discussed improvements in dietary risk methodologies, regulatory harmonization, and the impact of pesticide residues on global food trade. The document serves as a key reference for policymakers, food safety authorities, and researchers in toxicology and food safety management.
