A novela do Glifosato continua: mais um ano para decidir
Citando:
"Comissão Europeia quer congelar a decisão sobre o glifosato pelo menos um ano."
(...)
"O glifosato encontra-se em herbicidas de uso corrente, como o Round-Up da Monsanto, bem como dos concorrentes Syngenta, BASF, Bayer, Dupont e Dow Agrosciences. No entanto, a CE preparou uma segunda proposta para “minimizar” a utilização do glifosato nos jardins, parques e em zonas de jogos públicos, bem como nos campos agrícolas no período que precede as colheitas."
A autorização expira em Junho e em PT o uso já foi proibido.

(...)
"Not all patients would be eligible for surgery so the ultimate aim is to replicate the beneficial effect surgery-free."
