Pesticides are biologically active compounds and must therefore be expected to offer some potential risk, however small, to man and his environment. Most governments exercise control over the supply and use of pesticides through a registration procedure which is essentially predictive. Registration implies the acceptance by a competent authority of evidence submitted in support of a company’s claims for the safety and efficacy of the proposed pesticide product and its use.
