Fungicide Regulation Proposals – Vegetable Crops Hotline

Fungicide Regulation Proposals

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed the following label changes including some use cancelations to the fungicides listed below. These fungicides mostly affect fruit growers; however, we include them here since many vegetable growers also grow fruit crops.

Ziram, all conventional uses are proposed for cancellation.

Thiram, all non-seed treatment uses proposed for cancellation.

Ferbam, multiple specialty crop uses proposed for cancellation.

Iprodione, cancellations of uses for dry and succulent beans, caneberries and bushberries as well as other uses. A rate reduction has also been proposed for grapes.

To review the information used to develop the proposed interim decisions, see the links below.
