Established Maximum Residue Limit: Flonicamid
Description
The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for flonicamid notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1123 (dated 12 July 2017) was adopted 25 September 2017. The proposed MRLs were established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and are provided directly below:MRL (ppm) Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity7.0 Succulent shelled pea and bean (crop subgroup 6B )4.0 Edible podded legume vegetables (crop subgroup 6A)3.0 Pepper/eggplant (crop subgroup 8-09B)1; Dry beans, grain lupin, dry kidney beans, dry lima beans, dry navy beans, dry pink beans, dry pinto beans, dry tepary beans, dry adzuki beans, dry blackeyed peas, dry catjang seeds, dry cowpea seeds, dry moth beans, dry mung beans, dry rice beans, dry southern peas, dry urd beans, dry broad beans, dry chickpeas, dry guar seeds, and dry lablab beansppm = parts per million1 The MRL of 3.0 ppm is proposed to replace the currently established MRLs of 0.4 ppm for all commodities in crop subgroup 8-09B.MRLs are 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 Health Canada's 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(s) or for food commodity(ies).
