EPA Administrator Michael Regan says the agency’s recently revamped pesticide process will be quicker and better inform farmers of available products.
He said EPA scientists should decide what pesticides come on and off the market, not the courts.
“And that’s why we’ve asked Congress for a budget that really begins to bolster our ability to get out from under the courts, out from under the litigation and really focus on how we get the proper product on the market to support our farming and agriculture community,” Regan said.
