Abstract:In order to further track the progress of pesticide registration and the establishment of maximum residue limits (MRLs)standards for ginger in China,and to ensure the quality and safety of ginger,an analysis was conducted on the current registered pesticide products for ginger,their target pests,active ingredients,and quantities. Additionally,the status of national MRLs standards for pesticides used on ginger was examined. Statistics showed that 180 ginger pesticide products had been approved and registered in China,with 52 kinds of active ingredients,and the numbers of green,highly efficient,low-toxicity chemical and biological pesticides were gradually increasing. The GB 2763-2021 standard and its supplemental standard GB 2763.1-2022 included 124 MRLs for pesticides used on ginger,covering 129 pesticide varieties,among which only 26 pesticides were registered and approved for use on ginger in China. Compared with GB 2763-2019,there were 54 new MRLs for pesticides in ginger,2 modified MRLs,and 11 updated testing method standards. However,based on the occurrence of pests and diseases in ginger production and the result of residues monitoring,it is necessary to promote the registration of commonly used pesticide as soon as possible to ensure their compliant use. Moreover,the establishment of MRLs standards for both registered and commonly used pesticides on ginger also needs to be accelerated to enshure the quality and safety of ginger products.
