Productos Fitosanitarios y sus Residuos

La Comisión Técnica de Productos Fitosanitarios y sus Residuos (PPR) proporciona asesoramiento científico sobre la evaluación del riesgo de los plaguicidas para los operarios, los trabajadores, los consumidores y el medio ambiente. La Comisión Técnica elabora y revisa documentos de orientación en materia de evaluación del riesgo de los plaguicidas. Su labor contribuye a la evaluación de las sustancias activas utilizadas en los plaguicidas que corre a cargo de los Estados miembros ponentes y que revisa el personal de la EFSA.

Los miembros de la Comisión Técnica PPR son científicos procedentes de toda Europa con experiencia en:

  • sustancias activas: químicas y microbiológicas (virus, bacterias, hongos, etc.)
  • propiedades físicoquímicas (de los productos fitosanitarios y sus sustancias activas)
  • métodos de análisis (de los productos fitosanitarios y sus residuos)
  • toxicología y toxicología normativa
  • exposición no alimentaria y evaluación del riesgo (de los productos fitosanitarios)
  • exposición alimentaria y evaluación del riesgo (de los residuos de productos fitosanitarios en los alimentos y los piensos)
  • destino y comportamiento ambiental (de los productos fitosanitarios)
  • ecotoxicología
  • ecología y dinámica de poblaciones
  • exposición ecológica/ambiental y evaluación del riesgo.

Networks

What are EFSA's networks?

EFSA’s networks consist of nationally appointed EU Member State organisations with expertise in the fields covered by the network. Representatives of the Commission and of other organisations (including those from outside the EU) with specific expertise may also be invited to participate in the work of EFSA Networks.

Networks are chaired by EFSA and supported by relevant EFSA units. Their aim is to facilitate scientific cooperation in the field of EFSA’s mission by:

Pesticide Steering Committee sub working group Bee Calculator

The members of the PSC sub working group Bee Calculator were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSC.

Pesticide Steering Committee sub working group MRL procedures

The members of the PSC sub working group MRL procedures were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSC.

Pesticide Steering Committee sub working group Risk Assessment on Bees

The members of the PSC sub working group Risk Assessment on Bees were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSC.

Pesticide Steering Network (PSN)

In September 2008, EFSA set up the Pesticide Steering Network. It was established to manage and plan the overall pesticide risk assessment and consider ways to further streamline the process. The main goals of the network are to:

  • plan and monitor the risk assessment process;
  • integrate the risk assessment and MRL setting processes;
  • coordinate with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA);
  • give advice on the prioritisation in the development and the updating of risk assessment guidance documents.

Pesticide Steering Network on consultation for the corrigendum of the Aquatic Guidance Document (EFSA PPR Panel, 2013)

The members of the Pesticide Steering Network on consultation for the corrigendum of the Aquatic Guidance Document (EFSA PPR Panel, 2013) were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSN, including two participants on behalf of EFSA PPR panel.

Pesticide Steering Network on consultation on Draft Guidance of the PPR Panel on Residue Definition for Dietary Risk Assessment

The members of the Pesticide Steering Network on consultation on Draft Guidance of the PPR Panel on Residue Definition for Dietary Risk Assessment were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSN, including a participant on behalf of EFSA PPR panel.

Pesticide Steering Network sub working group IUCLID HYPERCARE

The members of the PSN sub working group IUCLID HYPERCARE were nominated by the Member States participating in the PSN and by the applicants owners of the substances included within the scope of the EFSA IUCLID HYPERCARE programme.
