Here’s what the Pest Management Regulatory Agency says about key crop protection products: Lorsban, Senator and Aliette.
- Bioprotec and Dipel biological insecticide labels have been expanded for control of leafrollers on greenhouse strawberries in Canada.
- The pre-harvest interval of Delegate insecticide has been amended to one day for bushberries for the control of spotted wing drosophila.
- Earlier this year, Engage Agro changed its name to Belchim Crop Protection Canada. Now, the parent company Belchim Crop Protection NV has purchased 100 per cent control.
- Advances in artificial intelligence are making an economic difference to greenhouse growers. Koppert Biological Systems in the Netherlands is cooperating with Ecoation, based in Vancouver, BC to better detect pests before they pose real harm.
