Wheat Growers To Face New Questionnaire Before Delivery

Wheat producers will have a new questionnaire to fill out when they deliver grain from the 2015/16 crop production year.
 
The majority of grain handling facilities will be asking if producers have used the crop input product containing the active ingredient Chlormequat Chloride.
 
It's the active ingredient in a new plant growth regulator product marketed in Canada as Manipulator.
 
Chlormequat Chloride is approved in Canada, however approval has not yet been completed in the United States.
