Access to pesticides – An explanation for minor industries

Summary

RIRDC manages the research and development funding and activities of many small and developing agricultural industries. A key management tool for many agricultural industries are pesticides; where they are used to control, suppress or minimise the impact of diseases, insects, weeds and other pests on the particular crop or animal. Unfortunately, each agricultural industry’s access to their required pesticides is not always available. The proposed document will sets out the current sources that lists the available pesticides and the procedure for accessing new pesticide uses.
