4.1.2. E-PRTR
Table 4.3 shows the pesticide load in 2017 reported under the E-PRTR for pesticides. As shown in the table, Simazine is by far the substance with the highest load, due a facility in Spain which is emitting 99,5 % of the Simazine pollution. Diuron is the second most emitted pesticide under PRTR which is widely in use.

"widely in use" Diuron is authoirised in just 2 MS https://ec.europa.eu/food/plant/pesticides/eu-pesticides-database/public/?event=activesubstance.detail&language=EN&selectedID=1271, so Im not sure its currently widely used. We dont have EU sales data broken down by active substance to have exact details on sale, and hence use.
