Beginning August
2017, changes to ON Reg.
63/09 will prevent Certified
Crop Advisors (CCAs) and
Professional Agrolo-
gists (PAgs) associated a
manufacturer or retailer of a
Class 12 pesticide from act-
ing as a professional pest
advisor.
"Across the agri-food
sector I've received unani-
mous acknowledgement
that something needs to
be done to address the
limitations that will be
placed on professional
pest advisors next year,"
said Thompson. "If this
government insists on
restricting the use of neo-
nicotinoids via regulations
for goodness sake - let's at
least make sure they are
workable."
Ontario has approxi-
mately 600 licensed Certi-
fied Crop Advisors and
Professional Agrologists
willing and capable of
conducting pest
assessments.
It has been said the gov-
ernment's planned changes
to the definition of a profes-
sional pest advisor will
reduce the number of advi-
sors to just 80, leaving only 2
advisors to serve northern
Ontario.
As a result, farmers will
find it increasingly difficult
to obtain the necessary
assessments and documen-
tation required to access the
agricultural inputs they
need.
"Farmers should have
the freedom to work with
whomever they choose,
and it is my hope that the
government will work
together with the agri-
food industry to ensure
Ontario's agri-food
experts can all be out-
standing in their field,"
said Thompson.
