De Glyphosate Renewal Group (GRG) heeft bij de Europese Autoriteit voor voedselveiligheid een dossier van 180 000 bladzijden ingediend ter bestudering door de uit Frankrijk, Hongarije, Nederland en Zweden bestaande beoordelingsgroep van rapporterende lidstaten (RMS) voor glyfosaat (AGG), met het oog op de verlenging van de werkzame stof glyfosaat.
De RMS heeft dit dossier geëvalueerd en een consultatieversie van hun beoordeling vrijgegeven (het ontwerp-beoordelingsverslag over de verlenging: dRAR).
In het kader van the transparantieëngagementvan de GRG geven wij korte samenvattingen van de verschillende elementen van het dRAR, met in voorkomend geval aanwijzingen over de wijze waarop de GRG van plan is te reageren op de door de RMS aan de orde gestelde onderwerpen.

The GRG performed a kinetics re-analysis of the data from 22 sets of grass residue trials on which the mean DT50 value of 2.8 days is based as presented in the EFSA (2015) conclusion on glyphosate.
Lees verder about the GRG Position on Grass Residue Decline Data for Chronic Wild Mammal Risk AssessmentThere is considerable information originating from both the scientific literature and media about the detection of glyphosate in the foods we eat, and consequently, in urine. Unfortunately, these reports often come with little context on how the data is obtained or what the reported values mean in terms of safety.

During the symposium, experts discussed the Assessment Group on Glyphosate’s recently released draft Renewal Assessment Report (dRAR) endpoints and proposed classification for glyphosate in Europe.
Lees verder about the GRG Industry SymposiumThe GRG has prepared a position document detailing key areas of the Ecotoxicological risk assessment, that relate to the ‘Effects on Non-Target Species’ sections of the dRAR.
Lees verder about the effects on non-target speciesThe RMS have re-evaluated glyphosate for its potential to be an endocrine disruptor concluding glyphosate is not an endocrine disruptor through the estrogenic, androgenic, thyroid, and steroidogenic pathways.
Lees verder about the draft RAR conclusion that glyphsate has no endocrine disrupting propertiesOver the past 30 years glyphosate has become the most important herbicide in global agriculture. For farmers, glyphosate herbicides provide simple, flexible and cost-effective weed control.
