The mission is
Ensuring phytosanitary, food safety of the Republic of Kazakhstan and a high level of quality management tests performed when using diagnostic methods for organisms harmful to plants in accordance with the requirements of the international standard GOST ISO/IEC 17025-2019
The strategic goal is
The main research directions of the test center should be aimed at solving the following tasks:
- Identification of quarantine pests and development of recommendations for the elimination of foci of quarantine pests.
- Seed treatment at the early stages of development with the use of mordants and determination of bactericidal properties of biological products.
- Development of scientifically-based protective measures against particularly harmful and quarantine weeds.
- Identification of genetically modified sources and identification of plant pests and weeds.
- Study of the environmental risks of using pesticides and ways to prevent the consequences of their use to protect crops from pests, diseases and weeds.
