Established Maximum Residue Limit: Boscalid

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for boscalid notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1406 (dated 28 July 2021) was adopted 15 March 2022. 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 Commodity30                    Caraway fruits1 ppm = parts per millionIn addition, this addendum clarifies the maximum residue limit proposed for caraway seeds cited in notification G/SPS/N/CAN/1406. The notification proposed a 30 ppm maximum residue limit for caraway seeds. Health Canada's MRL Database, however, has recently been updated (https://pr-rp.hc-sc.gc.ca/mrl-lrm/index-eng.php), and the crop descriptor for caraway seeds has been revised to caraway fruits.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.
