The European Union's Food Safety Authority (EFSA) announced plans to revise the maximum residue limits for deltamethrin in corn. Bayer SAS has submitted an application for this amendment in accordance with Chapter 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. Following an assessment, the EU Food Safety Authority concluded that short- and long-term ingestion of residues resulting from the use of deltamethrin is unlikely to pose a health risk to consumers based on reported agricultural practices.
