HGCA has published a review of the implications to the cereals and oilseeds sector following a recent decision by the European Commission to restrict the use of some neonicotinoid insecticides.

With sections on the different cereal and oilseed crops, Research Review 77 takes a close look at the key pests (and viruses transmitted by them) controlled by neonicotinoid seed treatments along with alternative control options and insecticide resistance challenges. A summary document Neonicotinoids: key messages has been released outlining the main implications.
