Understanding how this process happens and comparing your data is necessary, since the incorrect destination of these packages can cause irreparable damage to the environment. This article arose from the need to understand and disseminate how the process of returning pesticide packaging is local. The data were collected in the field research carried out in June / 2019 at ATRIA - Association of Resellers of Agricultural Inputs in the Middle North Tocantinense.
