New Zealand keeps glyphosate limits strict, bans pre-harvest use, citing safety and export concerns.
New Zealand has maintained glyphosate residue limits at 0.1mg/kg for wheat, barley, and oats, banning pre-harvest use and restricting applications to pre-emergence only, following over 3,100 submissions and stakeholder input.
A higher limit of 6mg/kg was set for dry field peas, aligning with international standards.
The decision reflects shifting farming practices, supports food safety and export markets, and responds to public concern, though Greenpeace urges renewed testing and stronger pesticide controls.
