subgroup 6A.  
MRLs are established for each commodity included in the listed crop groupings in  
accordance with the Residue Chemistry Crop Groups  webpage ( https://www.canada.ca/en/health -

health -environment/pesticides -food/residue -chemistry -crop-groups.html ) in the Pesticides and Pest 
Management section of Health Canada's website.  
MRLs established in Canada may be found using Health Canada's Maximum Residue Limit Database
