What is 'section 18' in the context of pesticides?

  1. A safety guideline for pesticide storage.

  2. The code for international pesticide trade.

  3. An emergency exemption from registration.

  4. The annual report all applicators must submit.

The correct answer is: An emergency exemption from registration.

Section 18 in the context of pesticides refers to an emergency exemption from registration. It is not a safety guideline for pesticide storage (A), nor is it the code for international pesticide trade (B). Additionally, it is not the annual report that all applicators must submit (D). It is important to note that Section 18 is a temporary provision that allows for the use of unregistered pesticides in specific situations where there is an urgent need, such as controlling a pest outbreak.
