Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply established six new guidelines for the organization of a line of registration of agrochemicals. The ordinance No. 163, which was published by the Union's Official Diary on August 12, establishes priorities for the analysis of the procedures according to the "real necessities of national agriculture".

According to the new rules, it will be analyzed first the new technologies of phytosanitary control which meet two criteria: "First, aiming to control greater phytosanitary risk; Secondly, to allow a phytosanitary support to the different agricultural crops, according to the integrated management of plagues".

The third article of the Ordinance 163, signed by the Minister Kátia Abreu, establishes four criteria for the technical analysis of equivalent products, the so-called "generic":

• Firstly, that they “aim plague control of greater phytosanitary risk for the different agricultural crops”;

• Secondly, that it "allows the adequate phytosanitary control for agricultural crops within the concept of integrated plague management, broadening the offer of commercial products on agriculture”;

• Thirdly, that it allows wide connectivity in the market, reducing agricultural cost production;

• Fourth, that it stimulates the manufacturing and formulation of products in the Brazilian industrial park;

The director of the Department of Plant Health at the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply, Luís Eduardo Rangel, affirms that "the farmer will rely on the intervention of the government to have a faster offer of technologies that meet its necessities on the short-term for the major plagues".

He explains that, since now, two steps will be taken: the classification of what plagues should be prioritized in Brazil and the establishment of a list of products which meet the new criteria established by the Ordinance 163. According to him, this criteria was decided in discussion between organisms that participate in the process of registration of new products (Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply, National Health Surveillance Agency and the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Resources).
