Federal Biological Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry (BBA), Messeweg 11/12, 38104 Braunschweig, Germany Preface Plant protection equipment must dose and distribute products exactly and function faultlessly. In order to achieve this, plant protection equipment should be inspected regularly to be able to identify and eliminate any technical defects. However, there are three main arguments for the inspection: • good control of the pest with the minimum possible input of crop protection product • less potential risk of environmental contamination by crop protection products • safety hazards for the operator The inspection of plant protection equipment is becoming more and more interesting for the Member States (MS). The 1st European Workshop, SPISE, took place in April 2004 prompted by the publication of European Standard 13790; the 2nd European Workshop aims to support the MS in introducing inspections for plant protection equipment. This Workshop represents a platform on which to discuss further regulations for introducing, putting into practice and monitoring the inspections in the MS and for co-ordinating them. This can be in the form of lectures, working groups or excursions. In some MS such as Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, equipment inspections have been developed and established over the past few years, and although they are organised in different ways (state-run, private sector), they have all resulted in high-quality technical inspections, ensuring reliable and efficient plant protection equipment. Within this Workshop, the legal/statutory regulations and technical standards for successful plant protection equipment inspections already in force in the countries stated above have been presented as examples and described in detail. The excursions to the three MS have shown their practical implementation which could be analysed and taken as a basis for implementation in one's own MS. The corresponding regulations in the three Member States mentioned will be made available in their entirety as an information package which is also intended as an aid for introducing plant protection equipment inspections. Since the Commission is working on regulations for equipment inspections in the context of the thematic strategy, the 2nd European Workshop will also be an opportunity for reporting on the current situation. The Workshop, with about 100 participants from 27 European countries, was opened by Dr. Schorn, head of Unit 517 for plant protection at the Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection, emphasising the significance of the BBA's initiative concerning the European inspection of plant protection equipment. Prof. Dr. Böhmer from the plant protection office in Bonn/Münster, welcomed the guests in his role as the host and created particularly favourable conditions for a successful conference in making the conference centre in Straelen available to us. The Workshop was initiated with four position papers • on the Thematic Strategy for the sustainable use of plant protection products • on the EurepGAP quality assurance system for agriculture • on the position of the CEMA - European Committee of associations of manufacturers of Agricultural Machinery • on a survey of plant protection equipment inspections in the Member States A further 18 contributions and 20 posters were shown by the conference participants in seven sessions. Finally, the participants passed a resolution with recommendations which were to be considered in further consultations for introducing an obligatory inspection to Europe. Mitt. Biol. Bundesanst.
