When a plant protection product is at an early stage of development, the performance of the new active ingredients or their combinations in formulations should be investigated, with the ultimate goal of generating data on the product label information in accordance with Good Agricultural Practice (GAP).

Preliminary tests are performed to evaluate the biological activity of a plant protection product and to determine the minimum effective dose rates or to extend it to other target pests or crops.

Preliminary screening tests are often performed in the laboratory or in semi-field conditions.
