Glyphosate in the product Roundup Ready Herbicide by Monsanto

The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) has before it an application from Monsanto Australia Limited to extend the existing Roundup Ready herbicide label to include use on a new generation of glyphosate-tolerant cotton, known as Roundup Ready Flex cotton. The extension involves a new section to the label where three specific application timings are indicated. As a result of the residues evaluation of the revised use, an increase to the cottonseed MRL is recommended to reflect residues occurring from the preharvest use of the above product.
