China’s Pesticide Maximum Residue Limit Development Tendencies (GB2763)
As early as 1990, China started pesticide MRL development. Since then numerous MRLs have been developed by China’s various regulatory authorities in the form of national/industrial standards for agricultural produce or food safety/ standards. This multi-sector development has resulted in overlap and inconsistency in both standards, enforcement and supervision. Since 2010, China began the process of reforming it MRL regulatory framework with the aim of deleting, consolidating and updating the MRLs into a unified food safety standard for pesticide MRLs, known as GB 2763. Up to now the standard has been updated three times and the number of MRLs has increased from 873 in 2012 to 4140 in 2016.
