This regulation removes methoxyfenozide, penthiopyrad and terpenoid blend QRD 460 from the EU list of approved active substances for plant protection products. The practical effect is that these substances are no longer treated as approved under EU pesticide rules. Manufacturers, distributors, farmers and compliance teams dealing with products that contain these substances should check whether any remaining authorisations, sales or uses are affected under national rules.
