CIPC Store Testing Data Required by CIPC Residues Monitoring Group
5 Jun 2024
The CIPC Residues Monitoring Group (CRMG) is a cross-industry body which has been set up by the UK potato industry to satisfy the data submission requirements of the Health & Safety Executive’s Chemical Regulation Division (CRD) for measurement of chlorpropham (CIPC) residues in potatoes held in potato stores previously treated with CIPC.
The need has arisen from a decision made by CRD to set a temporary Maximum Residue Level (tMRL) for CIPC of 0.35 mg/kg from April 2024
The Group is seeking the co-operation of growers and suppliers from all production sectors to provide residue data from compliance sampling for over 120
potato stores annually to meet the CRD data requirement.
