Vice Minister of Agriculture Wei Chaoan proposed at the National Pesticide Management Work Conference held on January 26 that this year the Ministry of Agriculture put forward the “three guarantees†specific goal for pesticide management work, namely to ensure that there is no major residue caused by pesticide residues. The quality and safety accidents of agricultural products ensure that the quality of pesticide products will be steadily increased, ensuring that there will not be group incidents caused by pesticide use accidents and that the quality and safety of agricultural products will be fully protected.
Wei Zhaoan pointed out that the current situation facing pesticide management is complex. The new situation of food safety requires pesticide regulatory requirements, the new trends in pests and diseases, the requirements for pesticide supply, and the new changes in the methods and methods of counterfeiting and sale of fake pesticides. The new situation of crop injury accidents has become increasingly demanding for the safe use of pesticides.
In recent years, China has strengthened its pesticide registration management and market supervision. According to reports, since the implementation of 6 new regulations for pesticides in 2007, the number of temporarily registered pesticide products has been significantly reduced, and a number of highly toxic and highly toxic pesticide products have been eliminated.
This year, the Ministry of Agriculture will continue to deepen the year of monitoring of the pesticide market and complete the important task of "three guarantees." Ensure that there are no major agricultural product safety accidents caused by pesticide residues. We will eliminate the use of 5 pesticides such as methamidophos, parathion, methyl parathion, monocrotophos, and phosphoamine during the production of crop products. Ensure a steady increase in the quality of pesticide products. 80% of pesticide management companies were included in the scope of monitoring. The rate of law enforcement investigation and handling of major counterfeit and inferior pesticides cases was 100%, and 100% of pesticide production enterprises were included in the scope of monitoring. Ensure that there are no group incidents caused by pesticide use accidents. The "Pesticide Emergency Preparedness Plan" has been issued, monitoring and early warning of accidents involving the safe use of pesticides have been carried out to reduce accident losses and protect farmers' rights and interests.
The meeting stressed that this year we must carry out the following tasks: strengthen the investigation and handling of cases, deepen the year-round monitoring of the pesticide market; highlight the ban on the use of highly toxic pesticides to supervise and further increase the quality and safety level of the crop products; properly handle pesticide use safety accidents, effective We will safeguard the interests of farmers; improve and perfect the registration system for pesticides and strictly admit pesticides in the market; focus on strengthening the construction of pesticide management teams and improving the ability to monitor pesticides.
