US EPA may look at inert labelling on pesticides again

摘要

The US EPA says that it may consider expanding a voluntary scheme for disclosing inert ingredients on product labels of antimicrobial pesticides to agrochemicals. The statement comes in a recent update on policy allowing registrants of antimicrobial pesticides, such as disinfectants, to provide information via links to websites. The scope of the policy is limited to antimicrobial pesticides, but the EPA says that it “may consider expanding to conventional pesticide and biopesticide products in the future”.
