Pesticide products are evaluated by an independent body analyzing its risks and benefits

  • biological efficacy
  • suitability for local market needs
  • use recommendations
  • limitation of risks to human health and the environment
  • legality of use, which is proven with a registration or a refusal of the registration

Registration, in other words, is an independent benefit/risk analysis for the farmer and for the consumer.

Only pesticides registered by the Pesticides Board can be sold and marketed legally in Malaysia.


"All things are poison and nothing is without poison, only the dose permits something not to be poisonous."

Paracelsus, 1493-1541
