Descripción
These guidelines aim to provide practical guidance in the registration of microorganisms, botanicals and semiochemicals for plant protection and public health. The document focuses primarily on data requirements for registration and evaluation approaches. It provides national authorities with a framework for registering biopesticides, identifies aspects where they differ from chemical pesticides, and indicates where registration authorities should pay special attention. Specific chapters are ded icated to each type of biopesticide: microbials, botanicals and semiochemicals. These guidelines are complementary to the two technical Guidelines already published in the framework of the International FAO/WHO Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management: the Guidelines on registration of pesticides (2010) and the Guidelines on data requirements for the registration of pesticides (2014).
