NPC NEEDS GROWER INPUT ON PENTACHLORONITROBENZENE (PNCB)

0.0/5 rating (0 votes)

NPC is asking for growers to provide input on PNCB use by survey. After the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed canceling the use of Pentachloronitrobenzene (PNCB) last month, the NPC filed a request for a 90-day extension of the public comment period. By filing this request, NPC is taking the time and preparing a sturdy response to the EPA’s proposed final decision. PNCB is currently the only tool that can suppress common scab and resistance in potatoes. The survey’s purpose is to gather information on the importance of PCNB as a crop protection tool.
