On February 15, 2017, the Members of the European Parliament
adopted a resolution calling on the EC to draw up
proposals to fast-track the evaluation, authorization, and
registration of low-risk pesticides. So far only seven active
substances classified as "low risk" alternatives have
been approved for use in the EU. According to Herbert Dorfmann
(Italian member of the agriculture committee and one of the eight
authors of the resolution that was adopted), "we are talking
about organisms, viruses, bacteria, nematodes that have to go
through a process of certification, which is not only very long,
but also very expensive."
