English language version pr. 2026-10-28 tier 2 Forordning (EF) nr. 1107/2009, konsolideret tekst pr. 16.06.2026, CELEX 02009R1107-20260616

The provisions governing authorisation must ensure a high standard of protection. In particular, when granting authorisations of plant protection products, the objective of protecting human and animal health and the environment should take priority over the objective of improving plant production. Therefore, it should be demonstrated, before plant protection products are placed on the market, that they present a clear benefit for plant production and do not have any harmful effect on human or animal health, including that of vulnerable groups, or any unacceptable effects on the environment.
