Share Your Views About a Plan to Recycle Commercial and Farm Pesticide Containers

Clean Farms has submitted a plan for an Empty Pesticide Container Management program for Manitoba. This program will properly recycle empty pesticide containers from farms and commercial generators.  Clean Farms is a not-for-profit company associated with CropLife Canada. 

CleanFarms will service approximately 130 municipal collection sites and ensure that materials are handled safely and recycled.

Manitoba Conservation wants to hear what you have to say about Clean Farms Industry Stewardship Plan for Empty Pesticide Container Management.  Printed copies of the Plan are available at Manitoba Conservation’s public registries located at libraries throughout the province or online here: (Clean Farms MB Industry Stewardship Plan PDF)
