Food and Feed Commodity Vocabulary
The Food and Feed Commodity Vocabulary was developed to
consolidate all the major Office of Pesticide Program Commodity Vocabularies
into one standardized vocabulary. There are about 12,000 lookup or search
terms in this database. Each lookup term is assigned an EPA preferred
term, an EPA (40 CFR 180.41) crop group name/number, and a monograph number
where further information about a specific commodity can be found. About
1500 preferred commodity terms were developed. The preferred term will
be the only term accepted in establishing pesticide tolerances. The Food
and Feed Commodity Vocabulary contains only human consumable commodities
and livestock feeds.
