The last change and development of China disinfectants management are frequent and significant. what has  happened and what's the new requirements of regulatory compliance in China? what's the most relevant issues?

This article details the regulatory requirements and mandatory procedures for import and export of pesticides in China and the management of the two special pesticide types a) pesticide for export only and b) substances falling outside the regulatory definition of pesticides but used in pesticide applications commonly known as “non-pesticide use pesticide (NPUP)”

The rodenticides approved, banned and stopped to use in china are summrized in this artice, in addition the foreign manufacturer of rodenticides in the status of active or  inactive are both listed in a table.

This article has summarized the banned or restricted for use pesticide in china which are  published by MOA announcements and those pesticides which are suggested to be banned or restricted for use by the pesticide registration review committee. Also it describe  the followed control  measures and suggestion  for administration of  highly hazardous pesticide in china .

In terms of annual crop production volume, China is the world’s sixth largest producer. China uses almost 200 GM cotton varieties accounting for 80% of gross cotton production. Expressed in financial terms this accounts for an annual turnover of 44 billion CNY. In 2006, transgenic breeding was given a major green light when it was given priority status in the “National Plan for Long- and Medium-Term Scientific and Technological Development.” Following on from this the state council initiated a major program in July 2008. In accordance with its priority status the state council outlined in, “Several Opinions on Promotion of Biological Industry”, that development of the biotechnology industry be a target for national investment. In 2010 the state council issued the “central file no.1” which detailed the functional elements of its plans to prioritize biotechnological development specifically GM crop R&D. Detailed in this document were the specifics regarding protection of intellectual property and a patent protection for genetic material and functional genes. These major milestones paved the way for the development and utilization of GMO technologies in China. China has IP rights on significant technologies and on some important genes involved in virus-resistance, herbicide-tolerance, cold tolerance and nutritional enrichment. China can also boast significant development in both basic and applied researched on cotton, rice and maize. General Introduction In China, activities such as R&D, experimentation, production, processing and import & export of agricultural GMOs are managed by the government. In Chinese legislation GMOs refer to genetically modified animals, plant and microorganism used in the agricultural production and agricultural product processing: Transgenic plant (seed, breeding poultry, breeding stock ) and transgenic microorganism; Transgenic plant and microorganism product; Produ

e we provide an explanation delivered by Mr. Zong Fulin, Division Director of the newly formed office in which he explains the rationale for the establiIn March 2013, ICAMA (Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, Ministry of Agricultural) established a new division called the Pesticide Registration Review Office. The newly formed office has been tasked with reassessing registered pesticide products currently circulating in the marketplace. In this articlshment of this office and the necessity for reassessment of registered pesticides. China implemented pesticide registration in 1982, however since implementation post market supervision of registered products has been grossly inadequate and poorly equipped to guarantee the safe use of pesticides and minimize the negative environmental and social impact associated with their use. Indeed in the past the only major regulatory hurdle for pesticide products has been the renewal of pesticide registration. In reality this checkpoint has been little more than a formality with successful renewal usually a foregone conclusion. Indeed the only real impetus for revoking registration has been when serious adverse effects or events force the governments to institute a regulatory ban, comparable to closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. Regulation and enforcement within this industry has ranged from inefficient to corrupt to extremely criminal. The industry has been plagued by practices such as the sale of “registration status" and the indefinite extension of registration both of which have continued to hamper implementation of effective and safe regulations. From a purely economic standpoint, not mentioning the social and ethical issues, the consequences of this archaic system has negatively affected the development of the Chinese pesticide industry since its inception. The system has severely hampered domestic R&D and resulted in an industry flooded by inferior quality “me-too” (gene

With the worsening of China’s PM 2.5 problems, there is an urgent need of effective governance against pollutant emission which must be achieved by improving the compulsory standard targeting specific industries. In China, 50% of the PM 2.5 particulates are directly released as emissions, while the other half is generated indirectly from the waste byproducts of various industries. These indirect precursor substances, known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are usually transformed through sunlight and heat into, nitrates, sulfates and aerosols and are a hugely overlooked and under regulated factor in PM 2.5 formation. As the majority of VOCs are attributable to pesticide production, a national standard, the “Air Emission Standard for Pesticide Industry” is being developed, which could support the newly promulgated “National Standard of Ambient Air Quality”.

China’s Regulations on Pesticide Administration (Decree 326 of the State Council) was promulgated and enacted on 29 November 2001. It is the overarching legislation for the pesticide sector, aiming to control the production, registration, marketing and use of pesticides. On 20 July 2011, a draft proposal to amend the regulation was released for public consultation. Late last year, officials from the Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals (ICAMA), which is part of the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), made numerous announcements on the impending promulgation of the final version (see Chemlinked News Released on Nov 16 2012). However, after being all but approved by the standing committee of the State Council, barring a signature from the council chairman, the legislative process has come to an abrupt halt. According to MoA’s working programme, which was released in April 2013, the regulation may fall at the last legislative hurdle. This is perhaps unsurprising, given recent leadership changes and the need for consensus across a number of different authorities. Cross-ministry management It is necessary to register all pesticides with the MoA prior to placing them on the market. The agricultural department under the State Council is responsible for the registration, supervision and control of pesticides throughout the country. Registration of new pesticides, when they are first produced or imported, consists of field trials, then temporary registration and finally full registration. ICAMA is responsible for reviewing the dossiers, then collecting technical suggestions and a decision from the National Committee of Pesticide Registration. If the registration process is successful, the MoA will issue a registration certificate of Pesticide Registration, known as ICAMA Registration. In addition to pesticide registration, enterprises producing, formulating or repacking pesticides within the territory of China must obtain manufacturing approval from the Mi
