CENTRALIZED CODING CELL (RPTLs)
The main function of Centralized Coding Cell is to receive pesticide samples viz., weedicides, fungicides, insecticides, plant growth regulators as per Insecticide Act from notified Insecticide inspectors of states and also from notified Central Insecticide Inspectors.The samples received are packed in separate containers, as per guideline set for packaging under Insecticide Act 1968 and are given secret Code Numbers based on the serial number of the samples.
