More Neonic Regulation Webinars Set Up

The provincial government has scheduled two more teleconference webinars on the new neonic treated corn and soybean seed regulations.

This is on top of the regional information sessions OMAFRA has already held in late August and early September.

Those sessions are to ensure stakeholders are aware of and understand the new regulatory requirements.

The two new teleconference webinars are September 14th and September 18th.

The one on the 14th runs from 7 to 9 p.m.

On the 18th, it's 1 to 3 p.m..

You can register for either of those through the OMAFRA website or by calling the Agricultural Information Contact Centre at 1-877-424-1300.
