European Union countries have chosen to delay a vote that would allow the continued sale and use of glyphosate herbicides, leaving little time before the EU license for glyphosate expires. A spokesperson for the European Commission said since a majority could not be reached, no vote was held this week as previously planned, according to the Wall Street Journal. The commission had proposed to reauthorize glyphosate for nine years once its current sales license runs out next month. After failing to receive a majority approval in March, the commission had reduced the proposed authorization from to nine years to 15 years. Glyphosate is one of the most popular weed killers in the EU. Complicating the vote is the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer findings last year that say glyphosate probably has the potential to cause cancer in humans. If the commission fails to vote before June 30th, glyphosate sales and use will no longer be authorized in the EU.
