Proposed Maximum Residue Limit: Trifloxystrobin (PMRL2018-23)

The objective of the notified document PMRL2018-23 is to consult on the listed maximum residue limits (MRLs) for trifloxystrobin that have been proposed by Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA).

MRL (ppm)1       Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity

40               Hops (dried)

302                  Radish tops

2.03                 Stone fruits (crop group 12-09)

0.44                 Radish roots

1 ppm = parts per million

2 Proposed to replace the currently established MRL of 10 ppm for radish tops.

3 Proposed to be extended to include all commodities in crop group 12-09 (stone fruits).

4 Proposed to replace the currently established MRL of 0.1 ppm for radish roots. MRLs are proposed for each commodity included in the listed crop groupings in accordance with the Residue Chemistry Crop Groups webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/residue-chemistry-crop-groups.html) in the Pesticides and Pest Management section of Health Canada's website.
