    This research analyzes the regulatory framework governing the management of agrochemical packaging waste in Antioquia during the 2020–2024 period, aiming to identify implementation gaps and propose improvement strategies. Using a qualitative and descriptive-analytical approach, the study concludes that, although Colombia has a solid environmental regulatory framework for hazardous waste management, significant challenges remain in its effective implementation, particularly in rural areas of the department. The findings reveal limitations in post-consumer collection system coverage, insufficient farmer training, weak institutional coordination, and deficiencies in monitoring and enforcement processes. In response, the study proposes strategic guidelines focused on strengthening collection infrastructure, environmental education, information systems, and environmental oversight in order to improve integrated agrochemical waste management and reduce environmental and public health impacts.
