The residue definition for animal products and aquatic products will be changed to Sethoxydim and
metabolites that can be oxazolation and/or sulfonation reaction to metabolite I, expressed as Sethoxydim.
The current residue difinition is the sum of residues of sethoxydim and each of MSO (metabolite B), MSO2
