Tillage farmers are in the midst of peak spraying season as herbicides go out on spring cereals and fungicides, plant growth regulators and nutrition will be applied to cereal and break crops over the coming weeks.

It is now nearly commonplace for plant protection products to exit the market each year.

Once products can no longer be registered, they are given a date by which they must be sold by and another date by which they must be used by.

If you have a product in your store which has passed its use-by date, then it must be disposed of in a hazardous waste collection.

If the use-up period has not passed yet, you can still use the product this season.

A list of products to be used up this year are listed below. These products are specific to tillage farms.
