Residue Tolerances 



Tables 1 and 2 describe the permissible residue tolerances of some che- 

 micals which can be used after harvest on tree fruits. This is an area of 

 actively changing regulations. Check with the fruit importer if any doubt 

 should exist about the residue tolerance allowed by a particular country. 

 Also, the company selling the product to the warehouse should have infor- 

 mation on acceptance of a chemical by other countries. Do not rely exclu- 

 sively on the information contained in these tables.
