Safe for the Environment Nov 16

California AG today. I'm Mike Stephens. We conclude with Jeff Rasmussen. California pest control adviser explains how all pesticides are federally as well as state tested and regulated.

And that's confidence that we understand when we have a new compound release or an old one that we are very confident and how we use these tools that first of all, these things are at the federal level tested in many aspects of not just human health. There's multiple levels of discipline at the federal level. On top of that, we have another department. Another agency independent of that is the Department of California Pesticide Regulation. And then they do their own independent testing on all of those other compounds. And they they are vigorously processed. And this takes, you know, up to two to three years sometimes for them to review these labels and look at the scientific data that the companies put forth volumes of testing. I have a great career of continuing to learn a mother nature in the complexities, and this is kind of a passion. And this is not a this is kind of my fulfillment of understanding the life cycles and this complex system that we're always trying to figure out how do we make food safer and more abundant while working with Mother Nature and having this symbiotic relationship?
