US-Canada Grower Priority Database
The US-Canada Grower Priority Database is a vital tool for grower groups in Canada, enabling them to submit and prioritize Maximum Residue Level (MRL) needs. Over 40 US commodity groups have contributed priorities, leading to a significant achievement where 29% of submitted MRL priorities have been addressed in Canada at US levels since its launch two years ago. This database facilitates registrants and governments in making informed decisions regarding review schedules and data submissions. For inquiries on submitting priorities, please contact Dan Botts or Kimberly Berry.
