Crop protection products play an integral role in Canadians' quality of life. Products, including herbicides, insecticides and fungicides, have made Canadians' lives healthier, safer and have provided an affordable, abundant food supply. In Canada, pesticides are one of the most intensely researched, tested and regulated chemicals. Industry is committed to going above and beyond the regulatory requirements to ensure the proper management of crop protection products for the sustainability and viability of Canadian agriculture. Lifecycle stewardship starts with discovery, research and development, through commercialization, marketing and distribution and ends with recycling, unwanted product removal and disposal.
