US environmental regulators are reviewing new pesticides for crops

The US environmental regulators are accepting public comments on new pesticide applications. These applications request permission to use specific chemicals on various crops.

This document is a routine step in the process of approving new pesticides. It means that companies want to introduce new chemicals into the food supply, and the public has a chance to weigh in. The agency will decide whether to allow these chemicals to be used on the food people eat.
