【 definition 】 this article is about the use and management of agricultural inputs.

At present, some Chinese herbal medicine planting farmers to increase production, blindly use agricultural inputs such as pesticides, fertilizers, Chinese herbal medicine pesticide residue and heavy metal content exceeds bid, affects the safety of the quality of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), so in the process of plant breeding, need to strictly regulate the use of agricultural inputs in accordance with the law, the good quality of Chinese medicinal materials from the source.

This section contains the following four aspects:

First, encourage the development of Chinese herbal medicine standardized farming.

Chinese herbal medicine standardized farming, which is beneficial to improve the quality of Chinese medicinal materials, in this regard, one is to establish standard specification, the second is to improve the level of standardization farming.

At present, the Chinese herbal medicine production organization form or in the form of a peasant family as the unit of production, the mode of production caused by the low degree of standardization and scale, medicine seed, soil, pesticides and medicines harvesting, processing, storage and other difficult to effectively implement the whole process of quality management measures.

Promulgated by the state council in 2016 the strategic plan for development of Chinese medicine (2016-2030) \", will comprehensively enhance the level of traditional Chinese medicine industry development and promote the traditional Chinese medicine standardized farming, to develop Chinese herbal medicine planting area planning.To strengthen the science of Chinese medicinal materials planting breeding guidance, to develop the Chinese herbal medicine planting farming professional cooperatives and cooperative association, raise the level of scale, standardization.

Second, strict management of agricultural inputs used.

Agricultural inputs is the indispensable material of agricultural production, is one of the important factors, relationship quality and safety of agricultural products mainly include pesticides, veterinary medicine, feed, feed additives, fertilizers, etc.Law of produce quality safety, \"pesticide management regulations\", \"regulations on the administration of veterinary drugs\" regulations on the administration of feed and feed additives and so on, the use of pesticides, fertilizers and other agricultural inputs have specific requirements.Such as \"pesticide management ordinance\" regulation, pesticides shall abide by the relevant state regulations on safety and reasonable use of pesticides, dosage, frequency, methods, and in accordance with the relevant provisions, applying pesticide safety interval to prevent the pollution of agricultural products.\"Regulations on the administration of veterinary drug regulation, veterinary drugs used in food animals, the owners shall be submitted to the purchaser or butchers to provide accurate and real medical records;Buyers or butchers shall ensure that the period of animals and their products in medicine, take medicine not to be used in food consumption.

Ban on hormonal drugs is added in the feed and animal drinking water and other disabling pharmaceuticals prescribed by the veterinary administrative department under the state council, it is forbidden to active pharmaceutical ingredients are added to the feed and animal drinking water directly or directly feeding animals, etc.

In terms of pesticide, the department of agriculture announced in 2002, banning the use of the 666, DDT, toxaphene, tetramine and other 18 kinds of pesticides, in June 2006, the ministry of agriculture and other four ministries announced that since January 2007 banned use of methamidophos, methyl convection in production and sales of phosphorus, convection phosphorus, monocrotophos, phosphorus amine five high toxic pesticides.In veterinary medicine, department of agriculture announced in March 2002, 21 classes provided food animals disabled list of veterinary drugs and other compounds.

In addition, released in February 2001, the ministry of agriculture on the ban in the ruminant feed add and use notice of animal feed, explicitly banned in ruminants drinks add and use of agricultural inputs.Chinese herbal medicine planting farmers in the use of the agricultural inputs such as pesticides, fertilizers, shall abide by the rules.

Third, in the process of Chinese herbal medicine planting prohibitive provisions.

The provisions of the use of high toxic, highly toxic pesticide used in Chinese herbal medicine planting process.The pesticide management regulations prescribed in paragraph 2 of article 27: \"toxic, high toxic pesticides shall not be used for prevention and control of health pests, shall not be used for vegetables, fruits, tea and medicinal herbs\" implied.

In 2002 the ministry of agriculture will a regulation that has banned the methamidophos, methyl convection phosphorus, convection phosphorus and monocrotophos 19 high toxic pesticide for vegetables, fruit, tea and wood materials, the use of dicofol, chlorine e chrysanthemum ester as tea tree.

2015 new modified food safety law has increased the use of high toxic pesticides are highly toxic, as vegetables, fruits, tea and wood used herbs such as prescribed by the state of the crops.The rules for the purposes of this article is with the food safety law and the regulation of the pesticide management regulations of corresponding.

Fourth, support Chinese well-bred breeding.

By medicinal plant germplasm innovation and well-bred breeding, can give full play to its excellent properties, plant breeding is to improve the yield, quality and economic value of the important measures.In 2015, the Chinese traditional medicine protection and development planning (2015-2020) \"is put forward, the construction of Chinese traditional medicine seed-breeding base.Promote the use of good varieties, to promote Chinese traditional medicine seed seedlings standards, the suitable region to carry out the standardization, scale and industrialization of seed seedling breeding, from the source to ensure high quality Chinese herbal medicine production.
