Secretariat TPR WT/TPR/S/411/REV.1 S-3§90 Kyrgyz Republic 2021 Measures Ban/Prohibition Agriculture, Chemicals, Other
Relevant information
3.90. In 2017, the Kyrgyz Republic launched a project to strengthen the capacity for national implementation of international agreements related to chemicals and waste, e.g. the Basel Convention, the Rotterdam Convention, and the Minamata Convention. The goal was to support institutional capacity to facilitate better implementation and strengthen the Kyrgyz Republic's legislative and regulatory framework. As a result, a number of recommendations, regulatory documents, and draft decrees were prepared to improve chemical safety. Within this project, an analysis was carried out to identify ways to phase out the use of glyphosate. According to the results of the analysis, it was recommended to allow reasonable use of glyphosate-based herbicides in agriculture until 2029, whereafter a subsequent ban on importation and use in the Kyrgyz Republic is envisaged.
