Date:09-29-2016

The Canadian Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) has proposed the full approval of Neudorff North America’s canola oil-based insecticides/acaricides/fungicides, Vegol Ready-to-spray, Vegol Commercial and Vegol Concentrate, containing the technical grade active ingredient canola oil, to control a variety of insect and mite pests, as well as to suppress powdery mildew, on many ornamental, vegetable, fruit, and nut crops both in the field and greenhouse, as well as on Cannabis (marihuana) produced commercially indoors for medical purposes.

An evaluation of available scientific information found that, under the approved conditions of use, the product has value and does not present an unacceptable risk to human health or the environment.
