Proposed Projects
The following list of proposed projects reflects ideas
that are under investigation by the Commission as to relevance and
feasibility for future project activities. Prior to project initiation,
a full discussion and endorsement by the Commission followed by formalization
via the IUPAC project proposal process will occur. The Commission
welcomes comments and suggestions regarding internationally relevant
issues related to agrochemicals and the environment which merit IUPAC
attention and evaluation.
