The Brazilian federal Supreme Court (STF) has overturned several provisions of Decree 10.833/2021, governing the production, research and registration of pesticides in the country. Among regulations that it has ruled as unconstitutional are those that make quality control of pesticides and the approval of discarded food more flexible. The majority decision was taken in a trial (ADPF 910) brought by the governing center left Workers Party (PT). The provisions were declared unconstitutional in the wording of Decree 10.833/2021 upon Decree 4.074/2002, which regulates the Pesticides Law 7,802/1989.
