MRLs Update, Imidacloprid
In recent news from the European Federation of the Trade in Dried Fruit, Edible Nuts, Processed Fruit & Vegetables, Processed Fishery Products (FRUCOM), the manufacturer of pesticide imidacloprid (Bayer) said it will not attempt to attempt to defend import tolerances for the neonicotinoid pesticide in the EU. According to Bayer, the European Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) for imidacloprid are likely to expire by the end of 2022, and be replaced at the default level of the Limit of Quantification (LoQ), which is 0.01mg/kg.
