Key points

  • EPA set tolerances for carboxin residues on Aug 21, 2026, which affects how farms and labs test produce.
  • UPL Delaware Inc. petitioned EPA under the FFDCA; EPA approved and issued a final rule.
  • The short record confirms a decision but does not list which crops or the actual residue limits.
  • This mainly matters to growers, packers and testing labs; consumers probably will not notice unless it covers a staple crop.
  • If you work in procurement or quality, get the full Federal Register notice and EPA docket to see the exact details.
