The programme contains: sampling plan, type and number of samples, method of sampling and testing, facilities from which sampling is taken, dynamics of sampling (sampling and testing plan), as well as measures to be taken when it is determined that the residues of plant protection products are higher than the prescribed maximum permitted quantities. Sampling of food of plant and animal origin is carried out: in warehouses for storage and distribution, in facilities for wholesale and retail sale, at primary producers and at border crossings and places of customs clearance. The annual programme includes food of plant and animal origin, from conventional and organic production, which is produced and imported into the territory of the Republic of Serbia.
