Ensuring health and safety is essential, not only for protecting human health and the environment but also supporting food security and promoting responsible use across the industry.

At CropLife UK we work closely with our members, farmers, and regulators to ensure that all products are used safely and in line with the latest scientific and regulatory standards. A substantial set of safety studies are required and evaluated by authorities applying a rigorous system of independent scrutiny before any product can enter the UK market. Our industry is committed to continue creating innovation that upholds the highest safety standards. 

We also support the likes of the Voluntary Initiative (VI), an industry-led programme that promotes the responsible use of Plant Protection Products (PPPs) through an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach.
