INDEX OF CROPS/CROP GROUPS/CROP SUBGROUPS, AND CROP DEFINITIONS
August 23, 2012
CROPS/CROP GROUPS/CROP SUBGROUPS (including crop grouping revisions per Federal Register [FR] Final Rules beginning Dec. 7, 2007):
The crop group table below includes all crop groups, subgroups, representative (rep) crops and commodities that were established with the crop grouping regulation published in the FR in 1995 (published as regulation in 17 MAY 95 FR:40 CFR 180.41). In October 2002 the IR-4/USDA International Crop Grouping Symposium was held to propose expansion of crop groups to include many “orphan” minor crops and to propose new crop groups, subgroups and rep crops. The first set of revisions to the 1995 crop grouping regulation (based on results of the Oct. 2002 Symposium) was published in the FR December 7, 2007, and included the following: Crop Group 3-07: Bulb Vegetable Group; Crop Group 13-07: Berry and Small Fruit Crop Group; and a new Crop Group 21: Edible Fungi Group (the “-07” added to groups 3 and 13 designates these groups were revised in 2007; the lack of an “-07” for Crop group 21 indicates it is the first codification of this group). The second set of revisions to the 1995 crop grouping regulation was published in the FR December 8, 2010, and included the following: Crop Group 8-10: Fruiting Vegetable Group; Crop Group 10-10: Citrus Fruit Group; Crop Group 11-10: Pome Fruit Group; and a new Crop Group 20: Oilseed Group (the “-10” added to groups 8, 10 and 11 designates these groups were revised in 2010; the lack of a “-10” for Crop group 20 indicates it is the first codification of this group). The third set of revisions to the 1995 crop grouping regulation was published in the FR August 22, 2012, and included the following: Crop Group 12-12: Stone Fruit Group; and Crop Group 14-12: Tree Nut Group (the “-12” added to groups 12 and 14 designates these groups were revised in 2012).
As crop group revisions continue to be codified via FR final rules, they will be added to this table (rows colored beige), and new petition submissions to EPA will request tolerances for the revised crop groups/subgroups. For existing tolerances and crop group/subgroup registrations based on the 1995 regulation, there will not be automatic revisions to the new groups. Instead, these changes will need to be specifically requested by registrants/IR-4 when other regulatory actions are being requested.
CROP DEFINTITIONS, per 40CFR 180.1(g):
The crop group table below also includes a number of crop definitions as established per 40 CRR 180.1, paragraph (g). These entries are in rows colored light blue (any new crop definitions codified along with crop group revisions via FR final rules will be shown in rows colored pink with the revision date). By these definitions, tolerances and exemptions established for pesticide chemicals in or on the general category of raw agricultural commodity (RAC) listed in column A apply to the corresponding specific RACs listed in column B. However, a tolerance or exemption for a specific RAC in column B does not apply to the general category of RAC in Column A. For example, a tolerance requested and established for the general category of RAC, Onion (in column A), by crop definition, applies to and covers the specific RACs bulb onion, green onion and garlic (the commodities listed in column B). However, a tolerance requested and established for the specific RAC, garlic (in column B), does not apply to the general category of RAC, Onion, in column A
