In China, plant protection products and a majority of biocidal products are regulated by China's pesticide management law and administered by the Ministry of Agriculture in China. Some biocidal products such as disinfectants are regulated by the Ministry of Health. This article mainly summarizes how pesticides are regulated in China. In 2009, the Chinese Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) under the State Council amended the current pesticide management law, the “Regulation on Pesticide Administration (RPA)”. The draft regulation for comments was published on July 21, 2011, and the new Regulation shall be issued in 2012. This new Pesticide Regulation will be implemented approximate 6 months later. The biggest challenge now is in the fact that temporary registration will be canceled; and therefore any manufacturers, importers and distributors should/ are required to register their pesticides formally. MOA also made the decision to revise the data requirement of pesticide registration (DRPR) in April 2011(here).

Regulation Updates
Compared to current pesticide regulation, the amended ‘Regulation on Pesticide Administration’ includes the following changes/ differences:

1.Improves pesticide registration system (Chapter II)
Temporary registration is canceled in the amended regulation; pesticide registration system is more regulated; the data requirement of pesticide registration is more easily understandable. Meanwhile, the amended regulation details the requirements of security and validity assessment. It defines the duration of administrative review, and regulates the formation and obligations of the pesticide registration review committee.

2.Enhances the management of the quality and safety of pesticide production (Chapter III)
Manufacturers are required to set up systems both for recording raw material imports and for the recording of pesticide products sold. Pesticide production should be in strict accordance with quality standards, to ensure the produced products are consistent with the registered products. The amended regulation identifies the criteria for pesticide packaging and labeling, and also specifies the conditions and relevant recording process for pesticide repackaging and foundry processes.

3.Regulates the management of pesticide production and operation (Chapter IV)
An authorization system is set up to identify the necessary condition of pesticide operation. The pesticide distributors are required to improve the record system of pesticide trade, including the obligation of illustration regarding use scope, methods, technical requirements and notices. Meanwhile, the foundry, repackaging and addition of substance are forbidden. Pesticide products without packaging and label or with incomplete label are not allowed to be placed on the market.

4.Enhances the supervision of pesticide safety use (Chapter V)
These organizations, including agriculture sectors, agriculture technical service organizations, pesticide manufacturers and distributors, are required to provide technical assistance, training and guidance for pesticide users.

5.Defines the responsibilities of pesticide management and supervision authorities(Chapter VI)
Refinement of management and inspection responsibilities of relevant departments; agricultural sectors are required to monitor the registered pesticide. If there are any critical hazardous and /or potential risks on agriculture, forestry, human and animal safety, pesticide product quality safety and environment, agriculture sectors should announce the ban and/or restriction of these pesticide products according to the assessment results provided by assessment committee.
