Grain growers are urged to follow instructions on pre-harvest pesticide use
On millions of fridges across North America there’s a magnet or sticker that reads “dance like nobody’s watching.”

“It’s a good assumption that every country we’re exporting (grain) to is going to test (for pesticide residues),” said Cam Dahl of Cereals Canada.
