14 Biologicals Project Team
15 Biologicals Elevated activity for Project Team in 2016 Increased effort to align industry and provide expertise - new guidelines/policy documents Building knowledge and capacity in developing regions among CropLife network and regulators Developing stewardship best practices and aligned communication messages Rapidly growing areas of interest with evolving regulations, such as bio-stimulants 15
16 Biologicals Pillars of new approach Regulatory Advocacy Advocate for a harmonized, science-based, risk assessment and tier-based approach to biologicals regulation Promotion of Integrated Solutions Promote and support the complementary and sustainable use of biologicals as part of integrated solutions Safety and Stewardship Develop safety standards and sound stewardship practices for biologicals Partnerships Partner, support and align with the global CropLife network and other associations (e.g. IBMA, BPIA, EBIC). 16
17 Issue Management - IARC
18 IARC Activity April 2014, IARC announces its priorities for monographs IARC Monographs to date Glyphosate 2015, 2A classification 2,4-D 2015, 2B classification Processed meats (bacon, hot dogs, sausages) 2016, 1 classification Red meat April 2016, 2A class Coffee, mate, hot drinks June 2016, 3 classifications Pentachlorophenol October, 1 classification IARC s credibility has decreased some after it classified popular consumer goods (coffee, bacon), but it is still widely viewed as the WHO cancer experts TBD by 2019 GMOs, operator exposure to pesticides and additional pesticides
19 Industry Response to IARC (CP Monographs) High level outreach to WHO Intelligence gathering on IARC process, methodology, conflicts of interest, transparency Generating influencer commentary by encouraging proactive news articles published in influential spaces Industry awareness and coordination through issue alerts Political outreach with WHO and FAO
