A webinar on managing agricultural waste

Every day is a good day to learn! Last month, #POLSOR members participated in a webinar organised by PSOR and Remedis. The topic was: How to prepare a store for the collection of plant protection product packaging within the PSOR Packaging Collection System.

This is an important topic to all distributors. The mannagement of packaging is regulated by legislation. Producers and importers are obligated to manage the collection of empty packaging by organising a colleciton system and/or accepting packaging in agricultural stores. Farmers are obligated to return empty packaging for all substances classified as hazardous.

The webinar was a valuable source of information on the obligations of plant protection product sellers, on regulations regarding storing empty packaging, and on the obligation to register in the BDO system. We learnend how to register a store in the PSOR system. 

This knowledge will certainly come handy soon. Spring is finally just around the corner!
