Hand and hammer

The authorisation for the fungicidal active substance Famoxadone was no longer renewed.

 

 

The decision of the EU Commission has been published in Regulation (EU) 2020/1379 m 20.08.2021. It will enter into force on 09.09.2021. On 16.3.2022 the phase-out period for famoxadone (CAS No. 131807-57-3) ends. The maximum residue levels will then be set at 0.01 mg/kg. At the moment, the limits for some fruit and vegetable products are still significantly higher.
