How are Monsantos glyphosate-based herbicides registered outside the United States?
Monsanto’s glyphosate-based herbicides are registered in more than 130 countries throughout the world. Most countries have a governmental equivalent of the U.S. EPA that reviews data from environmental and toxicological tests before registration is granted. In addition to these studies, many countries require that food crop residue studies be conducted in that country. Many require and maintain extensive databases on the performance of products to ensure that manufacturers’ claims and application rates are fully justified. Consequently, glyphosate, with its extensive global registrations, is one of the most thoroughly evaluated herbicides in the world.
