Programs

The Minor Use Foundation has a series of three programs in residue work, training and education.

The Foundation’s residue work is a jointly established initiative with the IR-4 Project and the United States Department of Agriculture, Foreign Agriculture Service. See our Residue Program page to learn more.

The Foundation is working closely with APAARI, the Asia-Pacific Association of Agricultural Research Institutions, on several field trials in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. Learn more about our Asia Pacific Residue Program.

The Foundation is also working closely with IICA, the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture, and here you can see our Latin America Residue Program.

You can quickly see the global reach of our Residue Program by taking a look at our Program Map – an interactive map of current field trials to generate data critical for establishing international Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs). You can also view current projects in table format.

Get updates on our progress on the 2021/22 global top ten crop protection priority needs.

We are currently building out information on our training and education programs. You can sign up for our newsletter and we’ll let you know when the information becomes available.
