THIRAM
Explanation
Information on the use pattern of thiram was received from two
countries and limited data on residues from supervised trials from
only one country.
Residue and analytical aspects
The meeting recognized that thiram, which has a fungicidal
spectrum different from that of the ethylenebisdithiocarbamates, is
used on several crops simultaneously or alternately with the latter
compounds, but the available data were insufficient to evaluate the
residue situation.
