European Union: Public Consultation on the Revision of the Sustainable Use of Pesticides Directive

The European Commission launched a public consultation in January on its upcoming revision of the Sustainable Use of Pesticides Directive (SUD). The rules encourage reducing pesticides through integrated pest management and alternatives to chemical pesticides. The SUD is also seen as a crucial tool to achieving the targets outlined in the European Green Deal and the Farm to Fork Strategy. The public consultation is open until April 12, 2021.
