Ferbam review

Status: Review Completed

The former Australian Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Council (AAVCC) revoked the clearance for ferbam in 1990. The phase out of ferbam was based on the concerns over the lack of toxicological and residues data.

There are no Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for ferbam.
