EU Pesticide MRL Proposed Changes: Billions in Agricultural Trade Exposed
What the proposal means for exporters and food businesses, where trade exposure appears, and how regulatory and quality teams can prepare.
Presented by FoodChain ID in partnership with QA & Food Safety magazine
Attendees will gain a clear view of how the EU’s proposed Omnibus X rules would affect pesticide residue limits on imported food and feed, including limits currently based on Codex standards. Regulatory experts will explain where Council and Parliament negotiations stand, which pesticide substances and commodities appear in the IICA and EU Joint Research Centre trade analyses and how to read the $44.2 billion exposure and $7.68 billion U.S. value-at-risk estimates. Attendees will also learn how to prioritize destination markets and crop and pesticide combinations before the EU finalizes the rules.
