    FAO’s Plant Production and Protection Division (NSP) and the FAO Regional project entitled “Enhancing Capacity in Codex for Effective Participation and Contribution of Selected Countries in Asia (GCP/RAS/278/JPN)”, FAO Office for Asia and the Pacific (FAORAP) jointly organized the regional workshop entitled “Pesticide residue risk assessment and the elaboration of Codex Maximum Residue Limits”. The objectives of the workshop were to provide participants with: • to strengthen the capabilities of participating countries in evaluation of residue data; • to update their knowledge of the assessment of risks associated with dietary exposure of pesticide residues; and • to upgrade the capacity of participating countries in establishment of Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) in food and feed.A total of 23 officials in charge of pesticide residue risk assessment from eleven Asian countries (Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Malaysia, Pakistan Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Viet Nam) participated in the workshop, with technical input provided by Dr Yukiko Yamada, JMPR expert, and Dr Guibiao Ye, FAO JMPR secretariat.The workshop evaluation results revealed that the participants were satisfied and gave excellent ratings for the workshop quality. The knowledge obtained from this workshop was considered very useful for their work. This workshop has enhanced their understanding on how Codex elaborates Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for pesticides in food and feed, data required for elaboration of Codex MRLs, as well as, How the FAO Panel of JMPR (responsible for residue data evaluation) evaluates information for estimating of maximum residue levels and calculation of dietary exposure. The group exercises provided an opportunity for the participants to conduct this evaluation. The workshop also raised awareness of the importance of data contribution from Codex members as participants requested the project to organize workshop related to data submission to JMPR for evaluation to establishment of Codex MRLs.
