Synopsis (short abstract) This guidance document provides countries faced with obsolete pesticide stockpiles with all the information necessary to plan and prepare an inventory of its pesticides and contaminated materials. Focused at a strategic level, it will assist countries in developing a policy for inventory preparation. It does not provide detailed information of all the practical steps needed to conduct an inventory project, so it is supported by a range of FAO training modules that develop the practical skill base within the project teams to allow them to undertake an inventory project effectively and safely.

The FAO/WHO/OECD pilot project on work sharing was carried out to test the use of national and international evaluations of pesticide residues and toxicology by the JMPR. The 2003 CCPR selected trifloxystrobin as the first compound for the work sharing pilot project because it had been evaluated in Australia, Canada, the USA and the EU and was scheduled for evaluation by the JMPR in 2004. The project is supported by the OECD, FAO, WHO, JMPR and national and regional authorities. The objective of the work sharing project is to use national and regional evaluations to facilitate and expedite reviews, while maintaining independence and incorporating global perspectives. Work sharing is intended to increase efficiency, resulting in a reduction of the workload.

The Joint Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) is an expert ad hoc body administered jointly by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Although the JMPR is an independent body that can respond to requests for advice from a variety of sources, its primary function is in the provision of scientific advice to the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). This advice relates to pesticide residues, including recommendations for Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) and Acceptable Daily Intakes (ADIs).
