Concerns about pesticide regulation in 2025

The president and CEO of CropLife America is concerned about the effects of EPA’s pesticide regulation in 2025.

Alexandra Dunn says the Endangered Species Act will have an impact on the next growing season.

“As new active ingredients are registered, those labels will have requirements on them,” she says. “Now, how many new active ingredients are going to come out in 2025 depends on how quickly EPA is moving and EPA has been moving pretty slowly.”

She tells Brownfield this could change in the new administration.

“There are a lot of new members of Congress, so we want to make sure we meet with,” she says. “We don’t want to forget about our states. You know, there have been a lot of changes in the state legislatures.”
