As a result, three compounds: diazinon, fenamiphos and methamidophos cannot be used off label.

This means that growers must only use these compounds strictly according to the label and must observe all ACVM & EPA controls. This includes following exact use pattern directions i.e. rate, timing, WHPs and target insect/s etc. Compounds that cannot be used off label:

Acephate (trade names Lancer and Orthene) cannot be used off label from 01 July 2016.

Maldison (trade names Malathion 50EC, Malathion 95) can be used off label, but all EPA controls must be complied with.

There are also revised maximum residue limits (MRLs) and WHPs for some crops. The MRLs will be promulgated in July 2016. This is to allow labels in the marketplace to be replaced and reduce unintentional MRL non�compliance. The new use patterns are available on product labels approved after July 2015. A further update will be made at a later stage.
