Winnipeg, April 2, 2025 – The Keep it Clean 2025 Product Advisory is now available to inform growers and crop advisors about potential market risks tied to certain crop protection products when used on some crops.
Canada’s agricultural exports are significant, with 90 per cent of canola, 80 per cent of wheat, barley, and oats and 85 per cent of pulses heading to international markets. The annual Product Advisory equips growers with essential product and crop combination insights to help ensure compliance and safeguard market access.
“As global export standards continue to evolve, staying ahead of potential market risks is now more important than ever,” said Krista Zuzak, Director of Crop Protection and Production at Cereals Canada. “The 2025 Product Advisory gives growers the latest insights to ensure their crops remain acceptable to both domestic and export customers.”
Keep it Clean will also be hosting a Product Advisory webinar on April 24 at 11:00 a.m. CDT, covering key points such as Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) policies in export markets and how the Canadian grain industry is working together to mitigate market risks. The webinar welcomes growers, crop advisers and other value chain stakeholders looking to better understand potential market risks before making application decisions this season.
While preparing for the upcoming growing season, Keep it Clean encourages growers to review the 2025 Product Advisory and discuss any crop protection products that are flagged with an advisory with their grain buyers.
