Come and Find out how you can become part of the international efforts to globally harmonize the access to plant protection
products that are safe for humans and the environment, and efficacious in protecting crops from insects, diseases, weeds and rodents. We bring farmers,
associations, certification bodies, processors, exporters, research organizations, manufacturers and regulatory authorities 'to the table' across political borders and
support them in their efforts of becoming part of the global cooperation. Join the movement!
FARMERS & PROCESSORS
PLANT PROTECTION INDUSTRY
REGULATORY AUTHORITIES
The Globalization of business, finance, trade, travel, fashion, construction, engineering, art, communication and science has almost been completed. Yet, every
year, thousands of tons of perfectly healthy food, feed and fiber crops are destroyed due to discrepancies in the authorizations of plant protection products. It happens when growers in an export
country have used a product on a crop for which it is not authorized in the importing country. In most cases, this is not because the product is dangerous but because nobody has asked for its
approval. Such barriers to the distribution of food, feed and fiber are non-tariff trade-barriers that can not be resolved in a court of law but only through global cooperation in the
authorization of plant protection products among and between farmers, processors, traders, the pesticide industry and government so that differences will disappear. This can be accomplished by
using the tools and guidelines that have been developed under the leadership of the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development).
