摘要

Under the technical cooperation project TCP RLA/5/0503 a 'black box' monitoring strategy was deployed by Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, and Uruguay to monitor indicators of good agricultural practice (GAP) and compliance with maximum residue limits (MRLs). The approach involved integrated biological and chemical monitoring of water quality at a landscape scale using harmonized protocols and georeferenced sampling.
