Established Maximum Residue Limit: Phorate

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for phorate notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/972 (dated 3 November 2015) was adopted 1 March 2016. 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 Commodity
0.6 Potato flakes, potato granules
0.2 Potatoes
0.024 All food crops (other than those listed in this item)
ppm = parts per million

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 (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/cps-spc/pest/part/protect-proteger/food-nourriture/mrl-lmr-eng.php). The database allows users to search for pesticides(s) or for food commodity(ies).
