Notice - Notification of WTO Members: A New GB MRL for pydiflumetofen amending the GB MRL Statutory Register


WTO code G/SPS/N/GBR/59

Notice type Regular
Title A New GB MRL for pydiflumetofen amending the GB MRL Statutory Register
Summary

Pydiflumetofen is a new active substance which has been approved in Great Britain; the representative uses are on wheat, barley, oats, rye and oilseed rape. An MRL application was submitted for carrots, parsnips and parsley roots, these were considered alongside the representative uses. The representative Plant Protection Product has been authorised for use on wheat, barley, oats and rye; a Plant Protection Product is expected to be authorised shortly for use on carrots, parsley roots and parsnips. The authorisations may also lead to residues in rotational crops; hence various MRLs in relevant rotated crops are being raised to account for this possibility.

Following assessment, new MRLs have been introduced to accommodate new authorisations of plant protection products in Great Britain. The Evaluation Report/Reasoned Opinion supporting the new MRLs is available at the following link. A complete list of the new or raised MRLs is available within this document, see pages 8-15: The evaluation of new MRLs for pydiflumetofen in or on various commodities (hse.gov.uk)

The residue levels arising in food and feed from the notified uses result in consumer exposures below the toxicological reference values and therefore harmful effects on human health are not expected. As the residue levels exceed the current MRLs in force, new MRLs are being adopted.

Product Products (and associated GB commodity codes*): Root and tuber vegetables (0210000), bulb vegetables (0220000), flowering brassica (0241000), kohlrabis (0244000), leaf vegetables, herbs and edible flowers (0250000), stem vegetables (0270000), barley (0500010), oat (0500050), rye (0500070), wheat (0500090), sugar beet roots (0900010), chicory roots (0900030), tissues from swine, bovine, sheep, goat, equine, poultry and other farmed terrestrial animals (1010000), milk (1020000), birds eggs (1030000) and honey (1040000)
