FAS Training 2017 SMR 10 Concerning Plant Protection Products
Pesticides Outline of Presentation ØPesticides ØRequirements ØChecks carried out ØBreaches found at inspection ØSummary
SMR 10 – Pesticides Plant Protection Products (PPPs) Council Regulation – 1107/2009/EC SI – 159/2012 Objective: High level of protection for man, animals and the environment & reassurance to general public, that PPPs are applied safely
SMR 10 – Pesticides Generic term used to describe 2 Groups of products Plant Protection Products (PPPs) (used on crops) Biocides Products (non-crop use)
Plant Protection Products (PPPs) Include: Ø Herbicides Ø Insecticides Ø Fungicides Ø Plant Growth Regulators Ø Seed Dressings Ø Molluscides Ø Fumigants
Biocides Used to control non-agricultural pest e. g. insects bacteria & fungi ‘Products designed to kill or control harmful organisms” not covered by PPP, Veterinary or Cosmetic legislation Used in a diverse range of situations Include: Ø Dairy detergents/sanitisers Ø Rodenticides Ø Wood Preservatives Ø Masonry Preservatives & disinfectants
Pesticide Registration Pesticides used must be registered with the PCD Pesticide Control Service Number (PCS No. ) Or in the case of some biocidal products a Biocidal Product Authorisation Number (IE/BPA) The register of currently approved PPPs & Biocides products can be viewed on DAFM Website (http: //www. pcs. agriculture. gov. ie)
PCS Number
Biocides Dairy farmer may store limited quantities of specific biocides (dairy hygiene products) within the milking parlour/dairy, as opposed to within a dedicated storage facility They must pose no risk of contaminating the milk
SMR 10 Plant Protection Products (PPPs) Can only use plant protection product if it is: Approved i. e. registered with PCD Ø Used in accordance with conditions specified on the label Ø Used in accordance with the principles of good plant protection practice Ø Used in accordance with the principles of integrated control
SMR 10 Principles of Good Plant Protection Practice (GPPP) include: Ø Optimal practice in the use of PPPs Ø Correct choice of active substance Ø Appropriate dosage rate Ø Number, timing & frequency of application Ø Method of application Ø Strategies to reduce spray drift Ø Resistance management
SMR 10 Requirements Principles of Integrated Control The use of the PPP is limited to the minimum necessary to keep harmful organisms below levels at which economically unacceptable damage or loss would occur Consider alternative methods of pest control rather than pesticides
SMR 10 Requirements Usage: Ø Use registered PPPs and biocidal products Ø PPPs must be used as specified on current approved product labels e. g. crop, rate of application, timing etc. Ø Comply with buffer zones as specified on the product label Ø Not fill any sprayer directly from a water body Ø Application equipment must be suitable for purpose and properly calibrated Ø Use in accordance with the principals of Good Plant Protection Practice
SMR 10 Buffer zones Legally must comply with buffer zone specified on product label Applies to all types of surface water body e. g. ditch, streams, ponds rivers & lakes No spray strip of specified minimum width between the edge of a water body and the edge of the treated area
Storage Requirements Chemical store can be standalone building, container, press/cupboard/cabinet/filing cabinet, which is independently lockable, and is capable of containing spills
Storage Requirements Dedicated storage facility/area Ø Warning Sign at entrance Ø Secure, independently lockable Ø Bunded store leakages/spillages Ø Well ventilated Ø Store Powders separately or above liquids Ø Store in original containers & labels attached Ø Facility to clean up small spills e. g. bucket of sand/peat Ø Keep out of reach of children
A Good Store? Liquids beside Powders
Storage? ?
SMR 10 Handling, Ø Clean, suitable & proper protective equipment and protective clothing Ø Appropriate designated measuring equipment Records, Ø Purchase, application, (by applicant and or contractor) disposal & return are maintained & available for inspection Ø Product applications records: must include date of application, crop, product name, PCS No, LPIS No. , area treated, rate of application, volume of water, method of application, buffer zone applied, whether STRIPE was used, reason for application, Professional user number (PU) of the person who applied the treatment Ø Farmers must maintain records of application where a contract applicator is used
Product rotation Ensure products no longer approved for use are not retained Ø Once products are past their “use-by date” they cannot be applied & must be correctly disposed of as hazardous waste Ø Regional collection programmes Ø Empty pesticide containers are tripe rinsed & disposed of safely Ø X
Records Ø Template available on DAFM Web Site
SMR 10 – Pesticides Inspections Part 1 inspection of SMR 10 assesses the storage & handling of PPPs on farm Check for: Dedicated storage facility/area Secure, bunded store & warning sign Facility for containing spills e. g. sand/peat Protective equipment/clothing for handling PPPs Powders are stored above liquids (avoid contamination) and products are in their original containers
SMR 10 – Pesticides Inspections Check for: Where possible buffer zones for each individual PPP product have been adhered to Sprayer tank was not filled or washed from a watercourse Records of PPP usage & IPM are being maintained & available on the day of inspection Currently no CC implications for IPM, sprayer testing & PU training
SMR 10 – Pesticides Inspections Record Details of spraying equipment, plus when last calibrated, date of testing & test certificate serial number or date of purchase if <5 years old How and where sprayer is filled & washed PU no of applicator Full inventory of chemical store
Pesticides Worksheet Sprayer & calibration details Make Model Serial Year of Sprayer Number Manufacture test Cert No. Date sprayer last calibrated Calibrated by whom Sprayer Cert No.
Pesticides worksheet How and where does the applicant fill & wash the sprayer? Is the applicant a registered Professional User (PU)? Record PU No. Is the application of plant protection or biocidal products undertaken by a contractor/third party Must provide contractors name and address; Contractors PU no. Who provides the chemicals (applicant or contractor) Are records indicating the practice of Integrated Pest Management available? If No - indicate which IPM practices are carried out, e. g. Topping, ploughing, use of disease resistant varieties etc.
Pesticides worksheet Legal requirement to apply pesticides as per IPM requirements Farmers must provide evidence that IPM is considered and practiced on the farm Does the herd owner carryout the application of plant protection or biocidal products as a contractor / third party? Is the applicant the sole owner/user of the designated PPP store? If NO – must give the name and Herd Number of other owner/user
Pesticides Worksheet – Year Purchase & disposal records Product Name PCS Pack Size Quantity (Trade Name) Number (kg or L) present (as printed on product label) Supplier (Name & Location) Date Purchased
SMR 10 – Pesticides Inspections Application records for the previous 12 months obtained to assess compliance with max rates of application and status of products used PCD are mainly concerned with products purchased and used in the previous 12 months “No records” a sanction will be applied
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Sustainable Use Directive (SUD): EU Directive 128/2009 governing all aspects of pesticide use Objective: Reduce the risk & impact of pesticide use on human health & the environment Promote the use of IPM and other approaches or techniques to pesticides IPM is the law of the land IPM is a sustainable approach to managing pests by combining biological, cultural, physical and chemical tools in a way that minimises economic, health & environmental risks Set of guidelines designed to help end users of PPPS to reduce reliance on PPP use & reduce the risk associated with such use
Part 2 PPP Check Completed by Pesticide Registration & Control Division (PRCD)
Pesticides Part 2 Inspection PCD assess Product usage records provided by applicant Check for: Product registration: is the product currently registered with PCD Product application rates - are these correct Is the product appropriate for the crop treated Are products used as per label recommendations Are buffer zones respected & products applied at correct time Are Inspection findings in accordance with the Principles of Good Plant Protection Practice? Are inspection findings in accordance with the principles of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Is the application equipment suitable for the application of the product?
