Cereals Canada Welcomes MRL On Manipulator Plant Growth Regulator

 
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States has established a maximum residue limit on chlormequat chloride, the active ingredient in MANIPULATOR Plant Growth Regulator.
 
Cam Dahl, President of Cereals Canada, said this is good news for Canadian farms from across the country.
 
“This is a potentially valuable tool that has seen limited use in Canada because of the lack of approval in the U.S. and the market risk that this entailed. That barrier to use has been removed,” he commented.
 
The Keep it Clean – Cereals program will now remove cautions in reference to chlormequat chloride.
