𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗴𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝘀! In a compact format of an intensive morning session on 21 March 2024 we shed light on recent regulatory topics and give helpful compliance tips.  - We will cover biostimulants, which are no longer considered as plant protection products, but now fall under the EU Fertiliser Regulation and REACH Regulation.   - We will outline the progress of PFAS and PFAS restrictions, which also affect pesticides.   - We will build on your knowledge about the Farm to Fork strategy, especially where the initiative stands before the 2024 election.    - You will also discover how the EU sanction framework will affect data sharing under the regulations on chemicals, especially the REACH Regulation but also the EU Plant Protection Regulation 1107/2009.     Join us also for the latest update on copper and other active substances.  Get your latest update here: https://lnkd.in/eYWPAy6u Picture Credit: © YummyBuum – adobestock.com 

Pesticides galore on the Annexe 111 list of pesticides. And yet the advantages of syntropic/permaculture is ignored

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST Vertebrate Pesticide Induction Training🦊🧪 To acquire and use 1080, Pindone, RHDV, or PAPP baits in NSW, you must be accredited (or under the direct supervision of an accredited person) with an AQF3 Chemical Accreditation or Vertebrate Pesticide Induction Training (VPIT) course accreditation. This Local Land Services course takes you through the legal responsibilities, safety requirements and practical considerations for an effective use of baits and pesticides. Face-to-face three-hour training session Upon completion of the training, participants will be accredited to use 1080, Pindone, PAPP and RHDV baits for 5 years. Training will cover: 🔸legislation and legal obligations 🔸baiting techniques 🔸toxicity 🔸storage 🔸transport 🔸how to reduce non-target exposure. For more information and to register your interest please contact eliza.james@glenrac.org.au or 6732 3443 Register by Monday 2 September, 2024 . . . . . #glenrac #baitingtechniques #locallandservicesnsw #baitingandpesticides #training #farmcourse #EssentialCourse #pestmanagement #PestControlTips

🆕 The European Court of Justice (EU CJ) has issued a 'groundbreaking' ruling that will have an impact on #PesticideRegulation across member states. > The ruling highlights the need for a comprehensive evaluation of pesticide formulations, including their combined effects rather than just looking at the individual active ingredients. > The EU CJ has supported a complaint by the Pesticide Action Network Europe (PAN EU) regarding the reapproval of three chemicals by the Dutch pesticide authorisation authority. > This decision means that all EU member states must now consider up-to-date scientific evidence – for example, on factors such as endocrine disruption and bee toxicity - in making their pesticide assessments. **** 🌟 LGC Standards supports pesticide research and analysis with almost 6,000 products – from reference materials, research chemicals, and PT schemes to the 700+ analyte #PestiMix Kit.

🌿 As an agrochemical professional, DFR (Dislodgeable Foliar Residue) analysis is a crucial step in assessing pesticide safety. This method determines the amount of active ingredient residue present on crop leaves, and therefore the amount likely to end up on workers' skin or clothing.   🔬🍃This process requires great methodological rigor, both in the field when taking samples and during the "dislodging" part in the laboratory. Dislodging involves extracting residues from leaves using a washing solution, in order to assess the real risk to farmers, pickers and other exposed workers.   👨🔬En as an expert in the agrochemical field, #Redebel is proud to contribute to making pesticide use safer by conducting LLW trials in a professional and conscientious manner. The reliability of this data is essential to guarantee worker safety and product compliance for registration.   #DFR #Safety #Agrochemistry #Pesticides #RiskAssessment

Last week, CLA and RISE (Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment) submitted joint comments on the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) proposal to substantially increase pesticide registration fees. In the comments, we stated that “DPR should be mindful that the proposed increases are at a level that could result in fewer pesticide registrations and therefore ultimately fewer options for California growers and applicators, especially given the very short notice that registrants have been notified of such a significant increase in fees, and the fact that budgets of many companies have likely already been established for this fiscal year.” Read the full comments here: https://lnkd.in/eBAVJtKn

🚨📣📌ℹ️ #IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION ACTION BY THE #USA’s #EPA for ALL #PESTICIDES CONTAINING #DCPA🚨⚡️‼️👇🏼⬇️ “🚨 US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Immediately Suspends All #DCPA-Containing Pesticides 🚨 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has taken decisive action to protect #public #health by issuing an #Emergency #Order suspending all #registrations for #pesticide products containing #dimethyltetrachloroterephthalate (DCPA), also known as #Dacthal. This urgent move comes after evidence revealed significant #health #risks, especially for #foetuses exposed to DCPA. 🔍 Key Points: Effective immediately, all DCPA-containing #products are suspended. Studies indicate that DCPA exposure can disrupt #thyroid #hormone levels in foetuses, leading to potential lifelong health issues such as #low #birthweight and #impaired #brain development. The EPA's thorough risk analysis determined that the health risks outweigh the #economic benefits of continued DCPA use. 💡 What This Means: The suspension impacts widely used products in #agricultural sectors, particularly for #Brassica #vegetables and #Allium #crops.
