FRANCE: list of substances concerned by the Tax on Diffuse Pollution for 2020
23 December 2019
ANSES announces the withdrawal of 36 glyphosate-based products out of the 69 products being under renewal. These products will be withdrawn from the market and will no longer be allowed to be used from the end of 2020, due to the lack or insufficient scientific data to rule out any genotoxic risk. In 2018, these products accounted for almost three quarters of the tonnage of glyphosate products sold in France, for agricultural and non-agricultural uses.
Moreover, 4 refusal decisions were notified out of the 11 new applications submitted since January 2018 and under evaluation.
The decisions and conclusions of evaluation are available in the Register of decisions on Anses website.
The comparative evaluation with available non-chemical alternatives continues. The entire evaluation process will be finalised by 31 December 2020.
