Development status and prospects of compulsory product certification for plant protection machinery

At present, there is relatively little research on mandatory certification of plant protection machinery, and the relevant literature is outdated. With the development of plant protection machinery technology, changes in the implementation regulations and detailed regulations of mandatory certification, and the needs of market development, relevant literature and materials can no longer meet the existing needs. This article summarizes the current development status of mandatory product certification for plant protection machinery in the past twenty years. Since its implementation, the 3C certification system for plant protection machinery has continuously developed and improved, including the implementation regulations of 3C certification, the detailed regulations of 3C Certification, the 3C certification product scope and certification unit division, designated certification institutions, and designated laboratories, and has become an effective measure for mandatory quality supervision and management of plant protection machinery. The 3C certification of plant protection machinery has shown significant results: the number of certified enterprises has increased rapidly to a basically stable level, the product structure of certified plant protection machinery has been continuously optimized, and the product quality of plant protection machinery has been continuously improved, providing favorable support for the implementation of agricultural machinery purchase subsidy policies. There are still some problems in the development process of 3C certification for plant protection machinery, including that the classification management of certification enterprises needs to be further improved and refined, the difficulty in defining the scope of new product certification products lags behind, and the 3C certification basis standards lack environmental safety requirements. Based on the development of plant protection machinery, the development trend of 3C certification is proposed, such as that certification enterprises are implementing hierarchical classification and differentiated management methods, certification units are constantly refined, intelligent inspection projects are increasing, certification basis standards are constantly improved, international market recognition is enhanced, certification agency supervision is constantly increasing, and designated laboratory testing capabilities are continuously enhanced.
