Many strains are very capable of colonizing roots of many species of plants They can colonize the entire root system for an extended period of time following application to seeds roots or soil

Regulation 2020 Stagnancy or new perspectives

for biological control

Should EU regulation + directive be implemented there is a market for BCAs

- Directive 2009128EC aims to achieve a sustainable use of pesticides

- Article 14 says that ldquothe Member States shall

take all necessary measures to promote low pesticide-input pest management giving wherever possible priority to non-chemical methods so that professional users of pesticides switch to practices and products with the lowest risk to human health and the environment

The Regulation (EC) No 11072009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market replaced 91414EEC from 14 June 2011 Article 55 explicitly implies the promotion of the use of non-chemical and natural alternatives

The road is paved for introduction of more biocontrol

Regulation of MBCAs in Europe

Regulation (EC) No 11072009 is the legislation concerning the placing of plant protection products (PPPs) on the market in the European Union Procedure

1Application to an EU country called Rapporteur Member State (RMS) 2RMS verifies if the application is admissible (completeness check) 3RMS prepares a draft assessment report (DAR) 4EFSA issues its conclusions 5Standing Committee for Food Chain and Animal Health votes on approval or non-approval 6Adoption by the Commission 7Publication of a Regulation in the EU Official Journal

Under the new EU rules it takes 25 to 35 years from the date of admissibility of the application to the publication of a Regulation approving a new active substance

Many strains are very capable of colonizing roots of many species of plants They can colonize the entire root system for an extended period of time following application to seeds roots or soil

Regulation 2020 Stagnancy or new perspectives

for biological control

Should EU regulation + directive be implemented there is a market for BCAs

- Directive 2009128EC aims to achieve a sustainable use of pesticides

- Article 14 says that ldquothe Member States shall

take all necessary measures to promote low pesticide-input pest management giving wherever possible priority to non-chemical methods so that professional users of pesticides switch to practices and products with the lowest risk to human health and the environment

The Regulation (EC) No 11072009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market replaced 91414EEC from 14 June 2011 Article 55 explicitly implies the promotion of the use of non-chemical and natural alternatives

The road is paved for introduction of more biocontrol

Regulation of MBCAs in Europe

Regulation (EC) No 11072009 is the legislation concerning the placing of plant protection products (PPPs) on the market in the European Union Procedure

1Application to an EU country called Rapporteur Member State (RMS) 2RMS verifies if the application is admissible (completeness check) 3RMS prepares a draft assessment report (DAR) 4EFSA issues its conclusions 5Standing Committee for Food Chain and Animal Health votes on approval or non-approval 6Adoption by the Commission 7Publication of a Regulation in the EU Official Journal

Under the new EU rules it takes 25 to 35 years from the date of admissibility of the application to the publication of a Regulation approving a new active substance
