FAQ

What data coverage and level of detail does Homologa provide?

Homologa combines several agricultural input datasets in one environment, including:
• Registered plant protection product data across 90+ markets
• Seed registration data across 20+ countries
• MRL data across 30+ regulatory frameworks

Depending on the dataset and country, Homologa can include details such as:
• Brand name and registration number
• Company name
• Active ingredients, concentration, and formulation
• Crops, crop groups, pests, and EPPO codes
• Application methods, dose rates, and number of treatments
• Pre-harvest interval
• Approval and expiration dates
• Product status and type
• MRL-related regulatory data

In some markets, additional fields may also be available, such as:
• GAP information
• Off-label or minor uses
• Emergency or temporary authorisations
• Seed treatment
• Parallel import
• Adjuvants
• Certification standards
• Symbols, risk phrases, and buffer zones
• Links to original sources

Coverage and depth vary by dataset and by country, so the exact available fields depend on the markets you need. This information can support organizations managing sustainability and certification requirements through programs such as sustainability verification.

What sources of information does Homologa use?

Homologa uses primary official and public sources whenever possible. When those sources are not directly available, Lexagri (a FoodChain ID company) works with a trusted network of local partners sourcing data from official institutions.

Depending on the country and dataset, sources may include:
• Ministries
• National registration authorities
• Food safety agencies
• Pesticide regulators
• Seed registration bodies
• Other official public institutions.

Homologa also includes links to original sources where available to support transparency and validation, helping organizations strengthen regulatory decision-making alongside regulatory and scientific affairs programs.

How often is Homologa updated?

Homologa is updated regularly, but update frequency depends on the dataset, the country and the availability of information from official or reference sources.

Each dataset follows its own update cycle, including:
• Plant Protection Product (PPP) registration data
• Seed variety data
• MRL (Maximum Residue Limit) data

To ensure transparency, Homologa provides public data availability pages showing, for each country or standard, the date of the latest update as well as the average number of updates per year. Access to current regulatory data is especially important for organizations supplying products to markets such as the European Union:
