Strategy1. Several fungicides are registered in Brazil that could fill the gap that the

disappearance of carbendazim will leave for citrus production.2. Some of these products are already approved for use on citrus but the five specific

pathogens that are being controlled by carbendazim need to be added to the label.

3. Other fungicides are approved for the control of these pathogens on crops other than citrus. In these cases the citrus crops have to added to the label and an MRL has to be set.

4. When adding citrus crops to existing labels, product specific MRLs will have to set. 5. The use patterns of the products on citrus should follow those in countries with

low MRLs so that Brazil can continue to ship their citrus crops to these countries.6. The next steps are:

i. asking the regulator for crop/pest/product specific data requirements for the label additions of crops, pests or crop/pest combinations

ii. based on these requirements ask the compan(ies) to add the new uses to their labels; residue trials might be required if data from other countries are not acceptable; these trials would not necessarily have to be conducted by the registrants but could be financed by growers, food traders or food processors

iii. search Homologa/GPPD for the use patterns in countries with similar MRLs

iv. based on the level of simplicity of regulatory requirements and the toxicological footprint of the active substance, a task force has to select the products they wish to be me available to them
