With Regulation (EU) 2023/1510 of 20 July 2023 the Commission has amended Regulation (EU) 2023/915 as regards maximum levels of cadmium in tiger nuts and certain cultivated fungi.

In particular, in order to avoid disproportionate non-compliance rates for tiger nuts and cultivated fungi other than Agaricus bisporus, Lentinula edodes and Pleurotus ostreatus, while maintaining a high level of food safety, the maximum levels for cadmium in those species have been increased.
