Best New Biopesticide

摘要

This award will go the best new crop protection product derived from a naturally occurring organism to be introduced since January 1st 2013. Applicants should not describe the environmental and toxicological safety of their product as these characteristics are "a given" in this category. The judges will be looking for a product that is not only effective but is formulated in a way that is acceptable to users and distributors and can forge a niche in a market dominated by synthetic chemicals. We are not looking for products that just perform in the laboratory; we want to see biopesticides that work in the real world.
