24It should be noted, first, that plant protection products are to be regarded as identical if, at least, they share a common origin in that they have been manufactured by the same company or by an associated undertaking or under licence according to the same formulation, were manufactured using the same active ingredient, and also have the same effect with due regard to differences which may exist in conditions relating to agriculture, plant health and the environment, in particular climatic conditions, relevant to the use of the product (see, to that effect, judgment in Commission v France, C‑201/06, EU:C:2008:104, paragraph 39).
