Enhancements to Pesticide Residue Testing Service

AWTA's Agrifood Technology division in Werribee has obtained NATA ISO:17025 accreditation for the analysis of pesticide residues on greasy wool.  Commencing 1st January 2010, all Pesticide Residue testing will be conducted at this facility. The immediate benefit to our customers is that we can now offer an improved 5 day turnaround on our service. Other improvements to service options, pricing and delivery modes are planned for the 2010/11 season.

An updated  Fact Sheet  is availble that descibes the service in more detail.
