Code of Practice Workbook

Pesticides are a strictly governed commodity from research to manufacture, sale & use.

This Code of Practice is for all professional users of plant protection products (pesticides) in England and Wales

The Code's statutory basis means that it can be used in evidence if people are taken to Court for offences involving PPPs.

Work within the guidelines of the Code and you can be assured you are working legally.

Who should read this code?

This code should be read by everyone who uses pesticides professionally:

• on farms and holdings;
• in horticulture;
• on amenity areas, industrial areas and sports grounds; and
• in forestry.

People who provide advice or practical support, or sell and supply pesticides, should be familiar with this code.
