Australia: Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code (Allowable Variation in Concentrations of Constituents in Agricultural Chemical Products) Standard 2022

The standard prescribes the extent of the allowable variation in the concentrations of constituents (including active and non-active constituents) in registered agricultural chemical products. The standard does not cover veterinary chemical products – it is envisaged that a similar standard will be created for veterinary chemical products in the future. In addition, the standard includes provision for applicants to nominate non-standard allowable variations for the concentrations of both active and non-active constituents, where this can be justified and will allow the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) to be satisfied with respect to the safety, efficacy and trade criteria.
