  1. Emergency authorisations for thiamethoxam on sugar beet

    After outdoor neonicotinoid use was banned in the UK in 2018, British Sugar received emergency authorisations for thiamethoxam treatment on sugar beet for four consecutive years, according to the cited reference. Environmental critics argued that the insecticide posed risks to pollinators and wider ecosystems. The available material records the controversy and regulatory approvals but does not establish a court finding of misconduct.
