This book was released on 2011-02-03 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive compilation of registration requirements necessary for authorisation of biological control agents (viruses, bacteria, fungi, active substances of natural origin and semiochemicals) in OECD countries. It also reviews data requirements for invertebrate agents (insect, mites and nematodes) and provides proposals for harmonisation of the regulation process and guidelines for completion of application forms. Based on results of the EU REBECA Policy Support Action, which gathered experts from academia, regulation authorities and industry, risks and benefits of the specific agents were reviewed and proposals for a more balanced registration process elaborated, including recommendations for acceleration of the authorisation process and discussions on trade-off effects and policy impacts. All these aspects are covered in detail in this book, which points the way forward for enhanced utilisation of biological control agents.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Commission commissioned a study on the Union's situation and options regarding the introduction, production, evaluation, marketing and use of invertebrate biocontrol agents (IBCAs) within the territory of the Union. EY was mandated to analyse the Union's situation across all 27 EU Member States and to support the preparatory work for the design of a possible initiative that addresses shortcomings of the current situation. Quantitative and qualitative evidence reveals that the IBCA market and uses vary across the Member States. While IBCA commercial use is quite developed in greenhouses, high-value crops and generally where pesticide use is limited, use in the open-field faces more challenges and is likely the sector with the most potential for development. The regulatory frameworks also vary greatly: some Member States have detailed procedures for the introduction of IBCA species while others apply no regulatory provisions related to the introduction of IBCAs, which may completely allow or disallow IBCA introductions, depending on the national environmental and biodiversity frameworks. This harmonisation gap could be addressed by a regulatory EU initiative, ranging from shared guidelines to the centralisation of the procedures and risk-assessments. Finally, the existing divergences could be addressed by possible EU initiatives including support to research, innovation and knowledge sharing.

Download or read book Review of Invertebrate Biological Control Agents Introduced Into Europe written by Urs Schaffner and published by . This book was released on with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This review provides an overview of all documented releases of exotic (non-European) invertebrate biological control agents (IBCAs) into the environment in Europe and summarizes key information on the target species as well as on the biological control agent released. It is an update of A Review of Biological Control in Western and Southern Europe edited by Greathead (1976) and covers the period from 1897, when the beetle Rodolia cardinalis was introduced into Portugal against the invasive cottony cushion scale, Icerya purchasi, until the end of 2009. This review is based largely on the BIOCAT database (Greathead and Greathead 1992), which contains records of the introduction of insect natural enemies, namely parasitoids and predators, for the control of insect pests worldwide. This review may not provide the complete list of BC agents introduced into Europe. Nevertheless, the report includes a vast majority of the introductions, and hence provides a representative picture of the history of releases of exotic BC agents into the environment in Europe.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Council adopted on 22 June 2021 a Decision (EU) 2021/1102 requesting the Commission to submit by 31 December 2022 "a study on the Union's situation and options regarding the introduction, production, evaluation, marketing and use of invertebrate biocontrol agents (IBCAs) within the territory of the Union". In this context, the Commission requested EY to undertake a study aiming to provide input in analysing the Union's current situation (extent of use of IBCAs, potential for further development, state of regulations at Member State level), to identify the main problems, and to support the preparatory work for the design of a possible initiative that addresses these shortcomings. In line with the evaluation criteria required by the Better Regulation Guidelines, this study relied both on quantitative data and a qualitative consultation: national competent authorities from the EU Member States; key representatives from relevant European stakeholders: intergovernmental, scientific and civil society organisations; and industry and user associations.

Ravensberg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biocontrol is among the most promising methods for a safe, environmentally benign and sustainable pest control. Microbial pesticides offer a great potential, and it is anticipated that they will become a substantial part of the use of all crop protection products. Their development and commercialization, however, has been difficult and with many failures. In this book a rational and structured roadmap has been designed for the development and commercialization of microbial pest control products for the control of arthropod pests. The building blocks of the entire process are identified and essential aspects highlighted. Biopesticides based on entomopathogenic bacteria, fungi, viruses and nematodes are elaborately discussed. This systematic roadmap with a strong focus on economics and market introduction will assist academic researchers and industrial developers of biopesticides in accomplishing their goal: the development of successful cost-effective microbial pesticides.

Book excerpt: Edible insects have always been a part of human diets, but in some societies there remains a degree of disdain and disgust for their consumption. Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock. To fully realise this potential, much work needs to be done by a wide range of stakeholders. This publication will boost awareness of the many valuable roles that insects play in sustaining nature and human life, and it will stimulate debate on the expansion of the use of insects as food and feed.
