Protecting heritage apistico: precautionary suspension of plant protection products used in the treatment of tanning seeds
Undersecretary health Hon Francesca Martini announced that following the opinion issued on September 16 last year by the Consultative Commission for Fitosanitari Products was issued today the Ministerial Decree of precautionary suspension of plant protection products containing active substances neonicotinoid thiamethoxan, clothianidin, imidacloprid and the active substance fipronil used in the treatment of tanning seeds.
The measure in question also concerns the suspension of use by farmers of seed treated.
The suspension of plant protection products cited above, adopted on the basis of scientific findings reported by the aforementioned Commission and the precautionary principle, will gain useful information about the deaths of bees in the use of such substances. It will be also conducted a monitoring programme nationally to identify the causes of the depopulation of hives that seems to be related to a number of factors (diseases, climate trends, poor nutritional value of pollen crop, plant protection products etc..).
