Consumers are increasingly aware of chemical use in food production and are interested in supporting chemical-free production alternatives. Biopesticides represent a viable residue management product and are exempt, in the United States, from residue limits on fresh and processed foods because they leave little or no residue. They can help growers meet lower residue requirements while still protecting their crops. Biopesticides can also be used to manage residue levels for exported produce.

You are invited to a FREE webinar to hear top industry experts discuss how biopesticides can help you find solutions for residue management in your own crop protection programs.
