AB  - The latest in this series of annual reports describes in detail the official 
      control activities carried out for pesticide residues by EU Member States, 
      Iceland and Norway in 2017. Under Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, 
      Member States are requested to share the results of their official control 
      activities and other relevant information with the European Commission, EFSA and 
      other Member States. Based on the results provided by the reporting countries, a 
      detailed analysis was performed on the pesticide occurrence data in the relevant 
      food products consumed and the dietary risk related to the exposure of European 
      consumers to pesticide residues was estimated. Overall, 95.9% of the 88,247 
      samples analysed fell within the legal limits (84,627, samples). In 54.1% of the 
      tested samples, no quantifiable residues were reported (residue levels below the 
      limit of quantification (LOQ)), while 41.8% of the samples analysed contained 
      quantified residues at or below the maximum residue levels (MRLs). The dietary 
      risk assessment indicated that, for the samples analysed, the probability of 
      European citizens being exposed to pesticide residue levels that could lead to 
      negative health outcomes is low. Based on the analysis of the 2017 results, EFSA 
      derived several recommendations to increase the efficiency of the European 
      control systems to ensure a continuing high level of consumer protection.
