    I heard it was a problem with the label.
    Something about the length of time before cows can graze.
    Hopefully back before flee beetles but who knows?

      Get rid of one of the best tools we have for insect control…smart.

      Getting to the point that there should be a referendum for every decision that politicians and “industry leaders” make.

            Yes I heard agcanada officials found traces of the chemical in milk. So there are specifically not wanting this chemical sprayed on plants that will be then used as feed stock in Canada (canola meal). Supposedly Syngenta is out of the game for sure and adama may bring their generic back in 24 once the product gets relabeled.

            This is a made in Canada problem and is a non issue with export market.

              Seems kind of odd that it's OK to spray bugs off of blueberries and broccoli and other fruits and vegetables for direct human consumption but shut down on anything that might be fed to a dairy cow because it might come through in the milk.

              Newer stuff is alway much more expensive and the #1 qualification is short or no residual activity.

              Hard to know what all the factors are in the decision to pull it.
              All comes down to risk and reward for them.

                    It's not like there are any dairy cows in Eastern Canada or anything like that.
