欧盟委员会提议调整农药批准制度,改变现行规则下农药活性成分不超过15年的批准期限1。根据新提议,无限期批准将成为默认选项,仅在特殊情况下才进行安全评估1。欧盟官员表示,此举旨在简化审批流程、降低成本并帮助农民保持竞争力1。欧洲议会议员Herbert Dorfmann强调"欧盟需要为创新开放体系",目标是在年底前将议会提案提交投票1。
然而,该提议遭到广泛反对。2026年9月,超过500名专家签署公开信,要求欧洲议会暂停审议新规并进行独立调查1。专家们警告称,这一改变忽视了人类健康和环境影响的严重关切1。联合国人权专家也于2026年10月7日呼吁全面审查拟议变更是否违反欧盟国际人权法义务1。
有关现行制度的有效性,数据提供了支持的证据。2014-2021年的调查发现,五个欧洲国家84%的儿童和成人尿液样本含有两种或以上农药残留1。自2011年以来,欧盟已因定期审查禁用56种活性物质1。欧洲议会议员Salome Roynel指出,这些禁用案例证明"定期审查对评估农药安全至关重要"1。
The European Commission has proposed fundamentally revising its pesticide regulation framework by shifting toward indefinite approval of active ingredients, with safety reassessments conducted only under special circumstances 1. The current rules, established in 2011, limit approval periods for pesticide active substances to no more than 15 years 1. The Commission's initiative aims to streamline the approval process, reduce costs, and help farmers remain competitive 1.
However, the proposal has triggered significant opposition from the scientific and human rights communities. Over 500 experts signed an open letter in September 2026 calling on the European Parliament to suspend deliberation on the new rules and conduct an independent investigation 1. A 2014-2021 survey found that 84 percent of urine samples from children and adults in five European countries contained residues of two or more pesticides 1, highlighting documented exposure risks. Since 2011, the EU has banned 56 active substances through periodic safety reviews 1, a track record that critics argue demonstrates the importance of regular reassessment.
On October 7, 2026, United Nations human rights experts urged a comprehensive review of the proposed changes to determine whether they would violate EU international human rights obligations 1. Herbert Dorfmann stated that "the EU needs an open system for innovation," with the goal of submitting the parliamentary proposal to a vote by year's end 1. Salome Roynel countered that the 56 substances prohibited since 2011 prove that "periodic review is essential for assessing pesticide safety" 1.
