This MBTOC 2006 Assessment reports on advances since 2002 in the technical and economic feasibility of alternatives to replace methyl bromide and, in particular, on commercial adoption of alternatives and potential alternative treatments to MB as a soil fumigant and as a fumigant of durable commodities and structures; and approved and potential alternatives for quarantine and pre-shipment (QPS) treatments, including treatments for perishables. It also shows trends in methyl bromide production and consumption in both Article 5 and non-article 5 Parties, estimated levels of emissions of MB to the atmosphere, and strategies to reduce those emissions.
