This article investigates how the National Institute of Empty Packaging Processing, responsible for the pesticide packaging collection program, communicates the risks involved in agrochemical practices through the content of its website. Since 2002, shared responsibility in this reverse logistics chain is required by law. With the help of the Iramuteq softwear, a content analysis was performed based on the frequency of the words, resulting in a cloud structure, and similarity. Through these analyzes it can be seen that the institute uses euphemism to communicate such risks, including replacing the term agrotoxic with agricultural defensive.
