1
Maximum residue levels MRLs for pyriproxyfen were set in Part A of Annex III to Regulation EC No 396/2005.
2
The European Food Safety Authority the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the review of the existing MRLs for pyriproxyfen 2 in accordance with Article 121 of Regulation EC No 396/2005. The Authority recommended to lower the existing MRLs for pyriproxyfen on swine/bovine/goat/horse muscle, fat, liver and kidney, as well as in cattle/horse milk to the limit of determination LOD in line with the principle of setting MRLs at levels as low as reasonably achievable and based on sufficient supporting data for the current good agricultural practices GAPs. As there is no risk for consumers, it is appropriate to set the MRL for pyriproxyfen on these products in Annex II to Regulation EC No 396/2005 at the level identified by the Authority.

The Authority further concluded that the MRLs for pyriproxyfen on almonds, chestnuts, hazelnuts, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, pine nuts kernels, pome fruits, grapes, table olives, kaki/Japanese persimmons, pineapples, tomatoes, sweet peppers, aubergines, cucurbits with edible peel, and watermelons should be lowered in line with the principle of setting MRLs at levels as low as reasonably achievable and based on the current GAPs and Codex maximum residue limits CXLs, which are confirmed as being safe for consumers 3. It also concluded that the MRLs for pyriproxyfen on apricots, peaches, plums, strawberries, mangoes, papayas, melons, cotton seeds and tea should be maintained based on the current GAPs and CXLs, which are confirmed as being safe for consumers 4. In addition, the Authority concluded that the MRLs for pyriproxyfen on citrus fruits, cherries and kumquats should be raised based on the current GAPs and CXLs, which are confirmed as being safe for consumers.
