Open letter reg. Glyphosate re-authorisation and the EU model of farming

Dear Commissioner,

We have recently read in the news that you support a ten years re-authorisation of glyphosate, inter alia arguing that ‘It is too important for agriculture - and for urban dwellers
as well who haven't access to alternative problems in relation to weeds in their gardens either”.

To: Mr. Vytenis Andriukaitis
European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Policy

Concerning: Manipulation of science in the glyphosate dossier.

EDCs & Neonics - letter

Brussels, 16th May 2017

Dear Members of the Standing Committee on Plants Animals Food and Feed,

Ahead of the meeting of SCOPAFF on 17th and 18th of May 2017, section Phytopharmaceuticals - Plant Protection Products – Legislation, we would like to share with you our comments on following points of the agenda:

Brussels, 27 March 2017

We, the undersigned organisations, call on the European Commission to reject the impending mergers of the world’s biggest agrochemical and seed companies.

In an already concentrated market, the world’s largest agri-business companies are proposing mergers – of Dow Chemical with DuPont, Monsanto with Bayer AG, and Syngenta with ChemChina. These mergers would exacerbate the problems caused by industrial farming – with negative consequences for the public, farmers and farm workers, consumers, the environment, and food security.
