The European Commission is recommending that EU member states approve a 10-year authorization renewal for the herbicide, glyphosate. The re-approval would run from December 16, this year. The Glyphosate Renewal Group (GRG), representing several registrants, sought the typical 15-year extension. The Commission submitted a draft renewal report (dRR) on the active ingredient to member states this week as well as recommending the approval extension. Member states meet to vote on the findings and recommendation during a Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed (SCoPAFF committee) meeting to be held in October.
