On December 11th, Ministry of Agriculture of Brazil, has suspended glyphosate factory source Jiangsu Yinyan Specialty Chemicals Co. Ltd., located in Zhoutie Town, Yixing City, Jiangsu Province, from all approved registrations. It includes technical and formulated products. Suspended registrations by MAPA:
PRODUCT brand name | REGISTRATION | ||
TYPE | HOLDER | NUMBER | |
Glifosato CCAB 480 SL | SL | CCAB | 16612 |
Glyphotal | SL | UPL | 10406 |
Glifosato Técnico YN | TC | AllierBrasil | 5113 |
Glifosato Técnico UPL BR | TC | UPL | 5405 |
In addition to these registration suspensions, this source was also excluded from all other glyphosate approved registrations. According to MAPA the reason for the suspension was due to the deactivation of the factory. Based on this, it might impact pesticide registrations in Brazil, which factories have already been closed.
