Glyphosate Determination: Food Safety and Market Requirements

Glyphosate is a widely debated herbicide due to its classification by international bodies, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), which has categorized it as “probably carcinogenic.”

Various environmental organizations have also pointed to potential links with chronic, neurological, and reproductive health issues. While conclusive studies have primarily focused on animal and cellular models, the global trend in food safety increasingly leans toward the precautionary principle.

In this context, maintaining glyphosate residue levels at a minimum is not only a preventive health measure but also an essential requirement for accessing the most demanding international markets.
