Caribpesticides.net
introduces to the world the first Caribbean, regional network of information
on pesticides and related material. This website was developed to improve
the link created by the Coordinating Group of the Heads of Pesticides Control
Boards in the Caribbean (CGPC). The CGPC was convened in 1995 to harmonise
the regulation of pesticides and develop standard procedures for registration,
monitoring systems for pesticide residue and to lobby for enactment of the
required legislation across the region.
Currently, only pesticide information on Jamaica is available. It is
intended that information from the other Caribbean States will be introduced
to the site shortly.
In addition this website creates links to local, regional and international
sites of other pertinent organisations.
