The dataset was generated collaboratively by 20 members of the Sociedad Latinoamericana de Investigaci\u00f3n en Abejas (SOLATINA) as part of the working group Impacto antr\u00f3pico. It includes five tables covering complementary aspects of agricultural production and pesticide regulation. Table S1 provides national-level agricultural context, including mean land and cultivated areas (2015\u20132019), the percentage of cultivated land, agricultural contribution to GDP, and each country\u2019s share of total cultivated land and primary production in Latin America. Table S2 compiles crop-level information such as harvested area in 2019, gross production and export values (2016\u20132020), and each crop\u2019s relative importance within national agricultural systems. Table S3 lists pesticide active ingredients approved in each country, with details on their common and IUPAC names, CAS numbers, EU approval status under Directive EC 1107\/2009, expiry information, WHO classification, source, category, and crop-specific registrations. Table S4 compiles active ingredients banned in the region, indicating inclusion in international conventions (Montreal, Rotterdam, Stockholm), WHO classification, EU regulatory status, and national bans by country. Finally, Table S5 contains aggregated variables used for generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs), including country, crop, number of pesticides, approval status in the EU, pollination mode, crop presence in the EU, mean export value, and mean production. This dataset enables cross-regional analyses of agricultural production and pesticide regulation, highlighting regulatory alignment and disparities between Latin America and the European Union. The repository also includes the R script used to fit the GLMMs. This dataset is linked to a scientific publication."],"dc:format":["application\/octet-stream","application\/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet","text\/plain"],"dc:language":["eng"],"dc:type":"dataset","dc:rights":["info:eu-repo\/semantics\/openAccess","https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/2.5\/ar\/"],"dc:identifier":"https:\/\/repositoriosdigitales.mincyt.gob.ar\/vufind\/Record\/CONICETDig_073ec931ed849de9a1dd3900ac6a9021"}
