I ask the above as now not farming myself I have become ignorant of what has been banned. I only ask as I wish to find out from my Canadian farming contact if they had any similar chemicals banned. I appreciate they only seed spring seeded OSR /canola . Thank you
Which OSR pesticides /insecticides have been banned from use by uk farmers?

I dont understand North American regulations, you can squirt dursban anywhere but most states dont allow the use of chlormequat and so you can see plenty of flat crops most years.

Ah yes, I had moved away from that before it was withdrawn so forgot about that.
Used to use fortrol on peas but it went before I really took an interest in the agronomy side of things and we didn’t grow much rape at that stage. But I should have remembered Aramo

Aramo was a good product because it would kill AMG happily.
Fortrol was a good product, I remember that.
Was it fortress the fungicide for peas and beans? Vincozolin?

Also for some reason the UK doesn't seem to be getting the third generation trikatones.
