STMR‐RAC: supervised trials median residue in raw agricultural commodity; HR‐RAC: highest residue in raw agricultural commodity.

Consumption figures in the EFSA PRIMo are expressed as meat.

Input values for the commodities which are not under consideration for the acute risk assessment are reported in grey.

(1) Refined calculation mode.

* Indicates a value at the limit of quantification.

(a) Values refer to the residues of prothioconazole‐desthio; data according to EU risk assessment residue definition not available (EFSA, 2020).

(b) Values refer to the sum of prothioconazole‐desthio, prothioconazole‐desthio‐3‐hydroxy, prothioconazole‐desthio‐4‐hydroxy and their conjugates expressed as prothioconazole‐desthio (EFSA, 2020).
