With the start of the fruit and grape harvest season, the National Food Safety Agency (ANSA) has reminded agricultural producers of their obligation to keep strict records of the plant protection products used during the growing season. The log must be completed immediately after each treatment in chronological order, specifying the product's trade name and active ingredient, the crop's growth stage and the rationale for its application, the amount of product and water used per hectare, the start and end times of the work, the personal protective equipment and machinery used, as well as the details and signature of the person who performed the treatment. The register must be registered and certified with the seal of the local ANSA office. This is an official document that must be presented upon request during government inspections, along with copies of cash register receipts or tax invoices confirming the purchase of phytosanitary products. Agricultural producers are required to maintain the register and ensure the completeness, accuracy, and reliability of the data entered. ANSA noted that compliance with these requirements makes it possible to track the use of these products and confirm compliance with the law, which contributes to the development of sustainable agriculture, environmental protection, and crop safety. // 12.08.2026 — InfoMarket.
