The monitoring of contaminants that affect the safety of primary agricultural foods began in 2011 in Peru. A documentary review of the monitoring reports published on the website of the National Agricultural Health Service of Peru (SENASA) was carried out between the years 2011 to 2020, however there was no complete information about concentration of unauthorized pesticides (UP) in relation to the maximum limit of residues and by geographic region, and type of pollutant, particularly the years 2019 and 2020, so the analysis is restricted to the period 2011-2018 verifying the use of no less than 20 unauthorized pesticides of which a minimum of two have been made. applications per crop, being the crops with the highest use of UP: lemon (7 UP); tomato, mandarin and grapes (5 UP); banana (4 UP); and oranges and pallar (3 UP), being chlorpyrifos and carbendazim the UP that were used in up to five crops, which would be explained by their wide spectrum of action. Monitoring is required to determine the concentrations of the UP according to culture, in relation to the maximum residue limits, and to the withdrawal period.
