Methoxyfenozide Risk Assessment for Figs and Crop Groups

EPA has published a risk assessment for methoxyfenozide, evaluating its human health and ecological effects when used on figs and crop groups as part of the pesticide registration review program required under FIFRA. The assessment provides scientific analysis that will inform potential regulatory outcomes for this insect growth regulator.

Pesticide registrants, agricultural producers, and crop protection industry stakeholders should review the assessment and consider submitting comments. The risk assessment may identify new use restrictions, mitigation requirements, or label changes that could affect future use patterns for methoxyfenozide-containing products.
