Draft Resolution number 1037, 8 April 2021: This draft resolution establishes technical requirements for the execution of researches on pesticides residues and establishment of Maximum Residue Limits for the purpose of market authorization for pesticides in Brazil.
Brazilian MRLs are established based on scientific methodology consistent with international best practices. Countries usually set MRLs according to the Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) applicable to their region. Agricultural chemical use patterns differ between different production regions and countries as pests, diseases and environmental factors vary. This means that Brazilian MRLs for agricultural chemicals in food may differ from Codex standards. However, when a product differs from Brazilian MRLs, but is in conformity to Codex standards, it may be imported, provided that the risk assessment does not indicate an unacceptable risk to Brazilian consumers. |
