".
As regards the reports on the placing of plant protection products on the market and the sustainable use of pesticides, I followed the very responsible line of my political group.
Products classified CMR1, which are scientifically proven to harm human and animal health, should no longer be authorised.
The obligation to inform all neighbours before spraying would only cause mass hysteria, leaving aside the fact that it would bring with it an enormous amount of counterproductive bureaucracy, which becomes obsolete anyway with the removal of CMR1 products from the market.
I am of the opinion that the principle of subsidiarity should be used regarding buffer zones not to be treated, to prevent additional constraints being applied to agricultural production.
I am against the creation of a special tax on authorised products because this will lead to a completely unnecessary increase in the cost of agricultural production.
I am of course against the ban on spreading plant protection products by helicopter. It is unacceptable to ban this method which is the only viable method in certain regions where, for instance, vines are grown on hillsides.
I am delighted that my amendments relating to the unacceptable effects of plant protection products that could, among other things, have a negative impact on the behaviour of certain species such as bees and that could even lead to the extinction of these species, have been taken into consideration."@en1
