Abstract
Navigating varying pesticide maximum residue levels (MRLs) is not just a matter of compliance; it is integral to maintaining product safety, consumer trust, and market access. Managing these regulations in a global market lacking harmonization presents several challenges for the entire food industry from farm to table. From tracking MRLs for multiple commodities and markets to understanding and applying complex deferral policies, companies must always be a step ahead to protect their reputation and mitigate risks. Join our webinar to explore these critical issues and learn actionable solutions to efficiently manage MRLs. From this webinar, attendees will learn:
- The critical role of managing pesticide MRLs in the food industry
- Recent examples of violations and impacts
- Why lack of harmonization creates barriers to managing regulations for multiple markets
- Proactive strategies to streamline compliance management
