Development of data packages for registration of novel nematicides based upon plant oil formulations

项目合作伙伴屏障生物技术有限公司（BB）、先正达有限公司（SYN）和约翰英尼斯中心（JIC）申请资助，以开发基于植物油配方的新型杀线虫剂产品。这些制剂将针对影响耕地根系作物的线虫，并替代由于植物保护产品指令（91/414/EEC）的变化而退出市场的现有商业杀线虫剂。BB在植物油方面有广泛的商业经验，并且有初步证据表明他们的专利配方可以控制农业和园艺作物中的线虫问题。天然配方在低浓度下提供功效；对环境的风险最小；将提高使用者的安全性和土壤的可持续性，并可能提供更持久的虫害防治，因为化学成分的复杂性及其自然发生的可变性。该项目旨在为CRD和/或DG sano注册新型杀线虫剂配方开发档案，这将是开发可销售的商业产品的基础，旨在减少产量损失，减少供应链中的浪费和成本，并促进英国农业内具有成本效益和安全的解决方案。这些配方可能对其他主要农作物如甜菜、番茄和黄瓜上的线虫也有效。

Project partners Barrier Biotech Ltd (BB), Syngenta Ltd (SYN) and the John Innes Centre (JIC) applied for funding to develop novel nematocide products based on plant oil formulations. These formulations will target nematodes affecting arable root crops and substitute existing commercial nematicides coming off the market due to changes in the Plant Protection Products Directive (91/414/EEC). BB has extensive commercial experience with plant oils and has preliminary evidence suggesting that their patented formulations can control nematode problems within both agricultural and horticultural crops. Natural formulations provide efficacy at low concentrations; represent a minimal risk for the environment; will enhance user safety and soil sustainability and are likely to provide more durable pest control due to the complexity of chemical composition and their naturally occurring variability. The project aims to develop dossiers for CRD and/or DG SANCO registration of novel nematicide formulations which will be the foundation of the development of marketable commercial products designed to cut losses in yield, reduce wastage and costs within the supply chain and promote cost effective and secure solutions within UK agriculture. These formulations are likely to be effective against nematodes on other major agricultural crops as well such as sugar beet, tomato and cucumber.
