    On February 8, Premier Li Keqiang of the State Council convened an executive meeting of the State Council to pass the "Pesticide Management Regulations (Revised Draft)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations (Revised Draft)")
    .
    The "Regulations (Revised Draft)" aims to further find "focus points" for improving the quality of agricultural products, emphasizing strict management of the entire process of production and use of pesticides, strengthening the main responsibility, and increasing penalties
    .
    Optimizing the supply and demand structure of agricultural products.
    With the promulgation of the Central Government’s No.
    1 document, the curtain of China’s agricultural supply-side reform has been opened, and comprehensively improving the quality of agricultural products and food safety will be an important part of it
    .
    Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the Institute of Rural Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out in an interview with a reporter from the China Economic Times that nowadays the supply and demand relationship of agricultural products in China is no longer the main contradiction.
    The most urgent need to solve is the agricultural ecological environment and food safety issues
    .
    As an indispensable means of production for modern agriculture, pesticides are closely related to the output of agricultural products
    .
    The widespread application of pesticides not only protects the safe growth of crops, but also makes a major contribution to ensuring the supply of agricultural products.
    At the same time, it also plays an important role in alleviating the serious shortage of rural labor caused by the rapid development of urbanization
    .
    However, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, it is not only the only requirement for agricultural products to solve the problem of food and clothing.
    The "grain in hand" depends not only on quantity, but also on quality, variety, and structure
    .
    At present, the supply and demand of agricultural products in our country are in a state of imbalance, and the supply of delicious, high-quality, green and safe food is in short supply
    .
    For this reason, Tang Renjian, deputy head of the Central Rural Work Leading Group and director of the Central Agricultural Office, also pointed out when interpreting this year’s Central Document No.
    1 that this round of agricultural supply-side structural reforms requires many reforms, but they are the most prominent and important.
    All is to be green, safe and assured
    .
    An important factor affecting the safety and quality of agricultural products is the use of pesticides
    .
    As a special input of modern agriculture, pesticides not only increase the production of agricultural products, but also bring many uncertain factors to their quality
    .
    A series of problems such as the disorderly growth of pesticide development and long-term unreasonable use also affect the confidence of consumers.

    .
    Therefore, in the eyes of many people in the industry, the adoption of the "Regulations (Revised Draft)" signifies that China's pesticide management and the development of the pesticide industry have entered a new stage of development, and it is about to face profound adjustments and changes, which is of great significance
    .
    It is understood that the revised "Regulations on the Administration of Pesticides" was first promulgated in 1997, and it has played an important role in the standardization of the management and use of pesticides in China in the past 20 years
    .
    As the main contradiction of China's agriculture has changed from insufficient total amount to structural contradiction in which oversupply and insufficient supply coexist in stages, the "Regulations (Revised Draft)" has become more strict and specific in the management of pesticides
    .
    In terms of supervision, in order to solve the coexistence of duplicate supervision and regulatory blind spots, the "Regulations (Revised Draft)" assigns the responsibility of pesticide production management that was originally responsible by multiple departments to the agricultural department, and implements a licensing system for pesticide production and operation, and establishes an advancement system.
    Sales inspection, quality inspection and waste recycling systems have strengthened the supervision of highly toxic and highly toxic pesticides
    .
    In terms of implementing the main responsibility, it will be clear that producers and operators are responsible for the safety and effectiveness of pesticides, require a sound quality management system, and timely recall pesticides with serious harm or greater risk
