Brazil Mapa registers 21 generic technical products for use in the pesticide formulation

The Act No. 64  of the Department of Plant Protection and Agricultural Inputs of Agricultural Defense Secretariat, published on November 24 in the Official Gazette, reveals a record number of 21 technical products. 

All of these products are generic, that is, they use active ingredients already registered and in use within the national territory. 

As these are technical products, none of these 21 registered products will be available for purchase by farmers. Technical products are chemicals with a high degree of purity and active ingredient concentration. The function of a technical product is to be used later as a component in the production of formulated products. 

The products were analyzed and approved by the Ministry of Agriculture, Ibama and Anvisa, according to the scientific criteria and in line with the best international practices.
