As the European Union tightens regulations on ergot levels in rye, Cimbria’s optical sorters are poised to help the grain handling industry meet these new standards effectively.
The COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2024/1808, which takes effect on July 1, 2024, mandates a reduction in the maximum allowable levels of ergot in unprocessed rye, maize, and rice to 0.2 g/kg starting July 1, 2025. This extension provides the grain handling sector with valuable preparation time. However, the milling industry, particularly for oats, barley, and spelt, is already under pressure to comply with stricter standards. Companies like Felleskjøpet Agri SA have proactively upgraded their processing facilities with advanced optical sorting technologies, positioning themselves to meet these upcoming regulations while enhancing product quality.
