ABQ, GARP, INT, EMBRAPA SOLOS and AEARJ, in the name of IUPAC, presents the proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Crop Protection Chemistry in Latin America.

The objectives of this workshop were:
- to facilitate the exchange of information and ideas regarding harmonized approaches available for the scientific evaluation and regulation of crop protection chemistry; and,

- to provide a forum for presentation of the latest research in the areas of agricultural biotechnology, environmental and human health protection, risk management and regulation of crop protection chemicals in Latin America.

With this effort research and regulatory scientists, working in the area of crop protection chemistry and biotechnology, will gain new insights regarding trends and emerging developments in agricultural science.

For this workshop, five over-arching themes have being established:
1. Innovative Chemistry and Technology for Crop Protection
2. Risk Assessment, Regulation and Global Harmonization
3. Environmental Chemistry and Risk Assessment
4. Pesticide Residues in Food and Human Exposure
5. Education and Information Management in Crop Protection
