Acetamiprid and neonicotinoids: contested expertise around agricultural law
In October 2026, a scientific note on the health and environmental risks of acetamiprid was neither published nor brought to the attention of parliamentarians responsible for the agricultural emergency law. On October 28, Anses, tasked with evaluating the possible reauthorization of two pesticides provided for by this law, had only one month to rule formally, a deadline that will not be met. On November 3, over one hundred scientists denounced in a Le Monde op-ed the progressive subordination of Anses' pesticide expertise. On November 4, an investigation described European officials who favor the extension and use of pesticides via the Omnibus X text, while a rally was organized.
