The EU approval for the active substance carvone and 34 other actives was extended.

 

Regulation (EU) 2019/706 renews the approval for the active substance carvone until 31.07.2034, which would have expired on 31.07.2019. Carvone is used as a growth regulator (CAS No. 6485-40-1). This restriction has been abolished. The active substance, which is isolated from caraway oil, has so far only been authorised as a plant protection product in the Netherlands. No maximum residue limit is required for this substance. Carvone is currently not covered by our multi-methods.

The approval conditions for the acaricide Cyflumetofen containing preparations have been changed by EU Regulation 2019/716.
