Leading palm oil producers commit to responsible agricultural management
Reducing pesticide runoff from the agricultural plantations in the Mesoamerican Reef watershed is critical to the conservation of its reef. The steep mountains of Honduras and the region's strong rains make agriculture a particularly serious threat to the reefs as large amounts of sediment and agrochemicals flow down to the sea.
