France ready to accept four-year glyphosate extension
Oct. 26, 2017
France is prepared to accept a four-year licence extension for controversial herbicide glyphosate in order to reach a consensus among European Union countries, the government’s spokesman said on Wednesday.
France was in favour of a more limited three-year extension but could settle for a European Commission proposal of four years, Christophe Castaner told reporters during a readout on a weekly cabinet meeting.
EU countries earlier on Wednesday failed again to agree on a renewal for glyphosate, a widely used crop chemical that is the subject of fierce debate over its effects on health.
