Under the authority of the Pest Control Products Act, Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) has granted full registration to technical grade fluazinam and the end-use product Allegro 500F Agricultural Fungicide for use on potatoes. The specific use approved in Canada is detailed on the product label of Allegro 500F Agricultural Fungicide, Pest Control Products Act Registration Number 27517.

To comply with Canada's international trade obligations, consultation on the proposed MRL was also conducted internationally by notifying the World Trade Organization, as coordinated by the Standards Council of Canada. No comments were received as a result of the World Trade Organization consultation.

The following MRL is legally in effect as of the publication date of this document.
