BCI AND USDA PARTNER TO DEVELOP MRL QUICK REFERENCE SHEETS

Bryant Christie, Inc. (BCI) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Foreign Agriculture Service (FAS) have developed and launched a series of Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) quick reference sheets through funding provided by the Assisting Crops Exports (ASCE) initiative. These quick reference sheets will be updated bi-annually and focus on the top ten export markets and encompasses a wide range of commodities. The intent of the sheets is to provide a tool for growers and exporters to be able to understand and comply with MRL regulations throughout the world.

There is an MRL Quick Reference Sheet, in an Excel format, for each commodity organized per active ingredients and including the product’s trade name, pesticide type, registrant, and whether or not the product is monitored within select markets. FoodChain ID’s Regulatory Limits MRL Database provides the current information on MRL’s for the quick reference sheet.
