Japan Sets MRLs for Fluopyram

Bayer CropScience announced Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for Luna fungicide have been established in Japan, effective immediately. The recent decision by Japan’s Ministry of Health Labor and Welfare establishes MRLs for fluopyram, the active ingredient in Luna.

“We are very excited to receive Japanese MRLs for Luna fungicide,” said Charlie Bergmann, product manager for Bayer CropScience. “This is great news for growers who want to incorporate Luna treatments into their management programs on crops being exported to Japan.”

Luna fungicide received registration from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 2012. It provides a new level of systemic disease control, as well as additional benefits in several crops, including reduction of year-over-year disease pressure in orchards, fruit quality improvements and crop storability enhancements according to the company.
