The second one; banning all pesticides until 2030 and taking the necessary steps for agricultural production using environmentally friendly, non-toxic techniques. Encouraging the use of environmentally friendly farming methods and small producers engaged in agriculture through these methods and encouraging them to use non-toxic methods. Increasing controls on pesticides used in agricultural and food products are among these demands.

Poisoned Tables also object to the name 'medicine' given to these chemicals and underline that the drug is intended to heal people, saying that pesticides harm nature and human beings. These chemicals cause serious diseases such as obesity, infertility and cancer in humans and can cause neurological disorders in children.
