The Brazilian government is developing a decree to regulate the Bioinputs Law, aiming to organize the supply chain through product classification and registration procedures. The proposed framework covers production, research, and trade, including inoculants and biofertilizers. For certain categories, the decree suggests simplified or automatic registration, though new phytosanitary bioinputs would require binding consultations with Anvisa and Ibama regarding health and environmental risks.

As the regulatory process progresses, technical debates have emerged regarding the characterization of microbiological products. Embrapa has suggested that different strains of the same species should be regulated based on their individual functional and risk profiles. However, critics argue that requiring new administrative authorizations for every intra-specific biological difference could create unnecessary barriers to accessing biological resources.
