Session Description

Every year, crop production is impacted when pesticide products are cancelled or when labels are updated to include amendments to use patterns. Join us to learn updates from our team of Perennia specialists who are here to support you in the horticulture and field crops sectors. The focal crops during the session are apples, wild blueberries, cranberries, vegetables, berries, wine grapes, cannabis and field crops, where each specialist will bring information on products that are relevant to their sector.

Perennia’s Annual Pesticide Product Information Impacting Horticulture and Field Crops course is NS Environment and Climate Change (ECC) course T2535 and is worth 1.0 point in Pest Management (agriculture). You must attend the entire session to receive points.
