根據歐盟委員會第396/2005號法規第6章，Syngenta Crop Protection AG向比利時國家主管部門提交申請，要求制定精甲霜靈在油棕果和胡椒中的進口限量。經過評估，歐盟食品安全局得出結論，根據所報道的農業實踐，短期和長期攝入因使用精甲霜靈而產生的殘留物不太可能對消費者健康構成風險。部分原文報道如下：

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Syngenta Crop Protection AG submitted a request to the competent national authority in Belgium to set an import tolerance for the active substance metalaxyl-M in oil palms fruits and peppercorn (black, green and white). The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for oil palms fruits and peppercorn. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of metalaxyl-M in the commodities under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of residues resulting from the use of metalaxyl-M according to the authorised agricultural practices is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
