Cimegra insecticide label expanded to help manage cabbage maggot

The Pesticides Regulatory Directorate (PRD), formerly known as the Pest Management Regulatory Agency, has approved a minor use label expansion for Cimegra insecticide for management of cabbage maggot on CG 5-13 Brassica head and stem vegetables: broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cabbage (Chinese, napa), and cauliflower in Canada. Cimegra insecticide was already labelled for management of insects on a wide range of crops in Canada. This minor use proposal was submitted by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture as a result of minor use priorities established by growers and extension personnel across Canada, and in response to several years of Emergency Use Registration requests.

The following is provided as an abbreviated, general outline only. Users should be making insect management decisions within a robust integrated insect management program and should consult the complete label before using Cimegra insecticide.
