Ban on fruits and vegetables treated with thiacloprid: what does this measure mean?. Prime Minister Gabriel Attal had already announced, on February 1, his intention to ban the arrival on French soil of food products treated with this pesticide.
In Brazil, it is even one of the pesticides whose use is “booming”, worried the Friends of the Earth Europe association in a report published in 2022. “Every imported batch must be analyzed, at the expense of the importers,” believes François Veillerette.
