The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authorities of the rapporteur Member State, Greece, and co-rapporteur Member State, Austria, for the pesticide active substance caprylic acid are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012, as amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2018/1659. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative uses of caprylic acid as a herbicide in ornamentals against weeds, and field spray applications on soil around ornamental and trees, and on sidewalks/pavements against moss. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed.
