Key points
- EPA issued a final rule on Aug 21, 2026 setting legal residue limits for the pesticide carboxin on multiple crops.
- This rule affects the farm, packer, and processor links first, not restaurant menus directly.
- The record names UPL Delaware Inc. as the petitioner, but it does not show any lobbying disclosures or money.
- The short summary does not list which crops or the exact residue numbers, you need the full Federal Register notice for that.
- If you buy ingredients for a restaurant or food business, check with suppliers about testing and certificates of analysis.
