Safe storage of pesticides is critically important. The following are specific requirements
Safe storage of pesticides is critically important. The following are specific requirements:
Storage Location Selection
Dedicated warehouse: Establish a pesticide-specific storage facility separate from food, feed, seeds, and daily supplies to prevent contamination and accidents.
Dry and ventilated:
Maintain humidity below 75% to prevent moisture damage
Ensure proper ventilation to reduce toxic gas accumulation and prevent poisoning/explosion risks
Temperature control:
Store at 5-35°C
Low temperatures may cause crystallization/precipitation
High temperatures may accelerate decomposition/volatilization or cause combustion
Fire safety:
Store away from heat sources (boiler rooms, electrical rooms)
Prohibit open flames nearby
Equip with firefighting equipment
Categorized Storage
By pesticide type: Separate insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators
By toxicity level:
Highly toxic pesticides: Isolated storage with warning signs, dual-lock system
Moderate/low toxicity: Properly categorized
By formulation:
Emulsifiable concentrates: Prevent leakage
Wettable powders: Moisture-proof
Different formulations require specific storage conditions
Packaging and Labeling
Intact packaging:
Maintain original containers
Replace damaged/leaking packages immediately
Never use food/drink containers for storage
Clear labeling:
Labels must show: name, formulation, active ingredient %, toxicity, usage, production/expiry dates
Unlabeled/mislabeled pesticides should be quarantined
Storage Management
Inventory system:
Detailed records of all stock movements
Track: name, formulation, quantity, source, destination, dates
Regular inspections:
Check for leaks, deterioration, expiration
Address issues promptly
Theft prevention:
Install security doors/windows and surveillance
Special protection for highly toxic pesticides
Note: Storage personnel must receive professional training on pesticide properties, safe storage knowledge, and emergency response skills. Establish contingency plans for potential leaks or fires to minimize accidents.
