“The indiscriminate use of chemicals<\/strong> in the food supply chain is risky and unsustainable. However, authorities continue to allow the release of new plant protection products. How is it possible that laws support such a dangerous agricultural model?” So wrote Le Monde<\/em>, speaking<\/a> in recent weeks on the controversial investigation procedure that could lead to a new green light on the use of glyphosate<\/strong> in the European Union.<\/p>\n The attack launched by the French newspaper is addressed to the preliminary report<\/a> drawn up by the regulatory agencies of four Member States (France, Sweden, the Netherlands and Hungary<\/strong>) which is still under scrutiny in Brussels. According to the authors of the investigation, says Le Monde, the product is neither carcinogenic nor genotoxic. The assessment, however, is not convincing.<\/p>\n
