Established Maximum Residue Limit: MCPA

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for MCPA notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1319 (dated 28 July 2020) was adopted 21 October 2020. The proposed MRL was established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and is provided directly below:MRL (ppm)1      Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity0.1                    Dried shelled pea and bean (crop subgroup 6C, except soybean)21ppm = parts per million2The MRL extends the currently established MRL of 0.1 ppm for dry field peas to the remaining commodities of the crop subgroup.            An MRL is established 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 the Canada.ca website.            MRLs established in Canada may be found using Health Canada's Maximum Residue Limit Database (http://pr-rp.hc-sc.gc.ca/mrl-lrm/index-eng.php) on the Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/maximum-residue-limits-pesticides.html). The database allows users to search for pesticides or for food commodities.
