Modification of the existing maximum residue levels for ametoctradin in herbs and edible flowers

Published on: Tue, 13 Jun 2017 +0200

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the evaluating Member State (EMS), Belgium, compiled an application to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for the active substance ametoctradin in the group of herbs and edible flowers, except sage and basil. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive a MRL proposal for these herbs. An adequate analytical method for enforcement is available to control the residues of ametoctradin on the commodities under consideration. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the intake of residues resulting from the use of ametoctradin according to the reported agricultural practice is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
