(Business in Cameroon) - The Inter-State Committee on Pesticides in Central Africa just accredited, during a session held on 9 May, five new pesticides, thereby authorising their use in the six CEMAC States which are Cameroon, Gabon, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Chad and CAR.

The phytosanitary products thus approved are Agreb 80 wp (fungicide), Boxer 10 wp (insecticide), Glycol 41% sl (herbicide), Glycol 680 wdg (herbicide), Super Killer 680 wdg (herbicide), Super 50 ec (insecticide) and Super 12 ec (insecticide).

These products were approved out of a list of 12 biochemical products presented by several companies. These accreditations come at a time when CEMAC States are denouncing the movement on their territories of many products harmful to agricultural activities.
