News Date August 25, 2010

EPA and Bayer CropScience signed a Memorandum of Understanding  last week that will phase out use of aldicarb.  Bayer will immediately end uses on citrus and potatoes.  Bayer will phase out other uses and end production by 2014 (though product stockpiles can be used through 2018 for some uses).  (Contact: Nathan Bowen)
