Course 3: how to register biopesticides in China under the New Regulation on the Management of Pesticides?

Date:08-04-2017

With China's emphasis on agricultural sustainable development and the release of the Zero Growth Plan of pesticide consumption, China’s biopesticide development has moved into a relatively rapid growing stage.

By the end of 2016, a total of 3,575 biopesticide formulations ((inclusive of antibiotics) covering 105 kinds of active ingredients were registered in China, accounting for 10 percent of all the pesticide registrations.

Table 1. China’s Biopesticide Registration Status by the End of 2016 (active ingredients classified)

Category	Number of Active Ingredient	Number of Product
Microbial pesticide	39	471
Biochemical pesticide	28	581
Natural enemy	2	4
Botanical pesticide	25	240
Farm antibiotics	13	2279

China's New “Regulations on the Management of Pesticides” were officially issued on April 1 and implemented since June 1, 2017. The new Regulation makes a new provision to the registration of biopesticides and pesticides. Therefore, “what documents are needed for pesticide/biopesticide registrations and how to speed up the registration process under the new Regulation” have already become the topics which everybody extremely pay attention to.

In the 1st China-Oversea Pesticide/Biopesticide Business Matchmaking Event (download the agenda), which will take place on 15-17th November 2017 in Nanjing, China, AgroPages will invite experts from China National Chemical Information Center to introduce the new Regulation and provide guidance on how to apply registrations for pesticides and biopesticides.
