Description

Acetamiprid is an approved active substance in Great Britain. The Health and Safety Executive received an application to set a new Maximum Residue Level (MRL) for acetamiprid in strawberries. Following the assessment, a new MRL has been introduced to accommodate a new authorisation of a plant protection product in Great Britain.The Evaluation Report/ Reasoned Opinion supporting the new MRL is available at the following link: The evaluation of a new MRL for acetamiprid in or on strawberriesThe residue levels arising in food from the notified uses result in consumer exposures below the toxicological reference values and therefore harmful effects on human health are not expected. As the residue levels exceed the current MRLs in force, new MRLs are being adopted.
