The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) is pleased to advise that the final report arising from our EPAC2026 international conference has now been submitted to the Organisation for Economic Co‑operation and Development’s (OECD) Co-operative Research Programme (CRP).
This report brings together the major outcomes and recommendations from EPAC2026 and reflects the extensive analysis of the insights, workshop outputs and expert contributions gathered through the conference.
Submission of the report marks the completion of a significant body of work undertaken by the APVMA in collaboration with national and international partners, which will support any future OECD programme of work to develop consistent, future‑focused regulatory approaches for precision application of agricultural chemical products.
The APVMA acknowledges the contributions of all participants, speakers, sponsors and other stakeholders involved in the EPAC2026 conference. We look forward to continued engagement with the OECD and global regulators as work progresses to support the future regulation of precision application technologies.
Further information, including recordings and presentation materials from the conference, remains available on the EPAC2026 website. The OECD CRP report is available on the OECD website.
