Summary

The bill stops the sale, distribution, and use of corn, soybean and wheat seeds that are coated with neonicotinoid pesticides. It also bars the use of those pesticides on outdoor ornamental plants and turf, except for certain certified applicators, farmers, veterinarians, and other limited cases. The Secretary of Agriculture can temporarily lift the bans if untreated seed isn’t available, farmers face undue hardship, or an environmental emergency requires it.
