Certificates of recognition for pesticide efficacy testing


Regulation EC No 1107/2009 requires that the tests and analyses required to demonstrate the efficacy of plant protection products must be carried out by 'Official' or 'Officially Recognised' efficacy testing organisations. Efficacy tests and analyses include field, glasshouse or laboratory trials and tests to determine the effectiveness and crop safety of plant protection products, plus their safety to other crops, plants and beneficial organisms.


Campden BRI (Chipping Campden) Limited and Campden BRI (Nutfield) are both registered with the Chemicals Regulation Directorate as 'Officially Recognised' and competent to carry out efficacy trials/tests in the United Kingdom. The scope of the certification relates to specified field, storage, processing and taint test trials within the categories of Agriculture/Horticulture and Stored Crops.
