i2 FAST – Introduce a NEW pesticide report format showing both GB and EU MRLs

GB versus EU Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs)

Since moving away from the common market, MRLs in GB have remained predominantly in line with those issued by the EU.

Our technical experts have been watching this space very closely, and in partnership with our customers, have identified a number of compounds where there is now differences between the EU legislated limits and those issued by Great Britain.

The need to easily, and unambiguously, view results on a multi-locational basis is now, more than ever, of commercial importance.

We are pleased to announce that effective immediately, the Pesticide Reports issued by i2 FAST will include, for each residue found*:

  • The Pesticide Grouping

  • Pesticide Type (based on function)

  • Pesticide Class

  • The GB MRL and the percentage of the GB MRL

  • The EU MRL and the percentage of the EU MRL

  • The Accreditation status

  • NESTI information; including ARfD and ADI information for 10 consumer categories

  • EU authorisation and approval status

  • A link to GB authorisation and approval status

  • A visible warning where the NESTI determined ARfD is more than 90% of one or more of the consumer categories – irrespective of MRL exceedance criteria

i2 FAST are committed to providing the most robust data and technical information.

This reporting update is the latest in a series of improvements designed to provide value where it is needed the most.
