Review of Strategy
Key issue
Goal
Mechanisms
Evolving pest pressure
Develop and implement IPM strategies
Strengthen research on entomopathogens & pheromones
Bioefficancy & residue studies on new molecules
Synergy of new molecules with biocontrol
Lack of/ non-harmonised MRLs
Obtain MRLs for compounds in use in producing/consuming countries
Update & maintain priority lists
Submission through IR4 & equivalents & AgroChem Co’s
Working partnerships with AgroChem Co’s
Reclassification of tea as speciality/minor crop in JMPRSlide9
Review of Strategy
Key issue
Goal
Mechanisms
Replacement/ banning of old chemicals
Replacement programme to replace with alternatives
Health, safety, sustainability
Pesticide priority list based on sustainability, affordability & safety
Decision tree to assess molecules
Reconsideration of risk assessment in Codex
Remit of WG on tea brewSlide10
Review of Strategy
Key issue
Goal
Mechanisms
Communication among stakeholders
An effective communication plan with stakeholders
Approach – transparent & consistent
Stakeholders – identify keycontacts: government, global regulatory authorities, chemical industry, tea industry
Timing – logical sequence of contactSlide11
Action plan and recommendations - proposal
Continue to develop the strategy – elaborate the activities for each goal
Champions of each goal to work with other contributors
Review and update the chemical priority list
Update the field trial timetable
Continue making MRL submissions
