The Ontario Ministry of Environment and Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs is putting restrictions on the use of neonic coatings on soybeans and corn, as they reject that industry portrayal.
The neonics are persistent. They get into the soil; they get into the water. There are studies in Ontario and in Quebec finding watercourses that are contaminated with neonics long after they should not be there.
What you have expressed is the popular way it's being expressed by the industry, but the 1,000 studies around the world all indicate that there are other problems.
