Control Products Sales Information Reporting Regulations came into force, making mandatory under the Pest Control Products Act the reporting of sales information by registrants to Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA). These regulations require registrants to submit annually to the PMRA the total volume of all their products registered with the PMRA and made available for sale to users (referred to as “sold” in the remainder of this report). These data are reported by calendar year (1 January to 31 December) and must be submitted by 1 June of the following year. The purpose of the sales information reporting program is to collect sales data that are used by the PMRA to better understand potential pesticide use in Canada. Sales data provides additional context in risk assessments of pesticides, in policy development, and in identifying trends in pesticide use. For example, sales data are used in the re-evaluation and special review of pesticides to help understand the presence and value of the pesticide in the Canadian marketplace, as well as to predict the potential impacts if changes are made to the registration status of the pesticide. Sales data are also used to inform the Pesticide Incident Reporting Program on the market share of particular pesticides to help identify potential risks that may require attention. Sales data can also be used as an additional input in market and economic trend analyses and in the development of policies and regulatory updates. Introduction This tenth Pest Control Products Sales Report provides an overview of pesticides sold in Canada for the 2017 calendar year, and briefly discusses changes in pesticide sales over the last five years. Data are considered confidential business information and are combined and presented in various ways to ensure confidentiality. Overall Canadian Pesticide Sales Data Overview There were 7416 products registered with the PMRA for use in Canada in the 2017 calendar year. Registrants submitted sales data in different units depending on the product (for example, kilograms, litres). To standardize across varying products, the data have been converted into kilograms of active ingredient (kg a.i.). All technical grade active ingredient and manufacturing concentrate product information was excluded from calculation as the quantity is reported in the end-use products. Also, products where the data could not be converted to kg a.i., due to the reported units of measure, were excluded from calculation. This includes products that had unusual units, such as colony forming units. The majority of these products are biopesticides which are discussed separately in this document. Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 3 Of the remaining 2654 products reported as sold, the overall pesticide sales in Canada in 2017 were 132 135 115 kg a.i., which is a 10% increase from the 120 104 921 kg a.i. sold in 2016 (Figure 1). There is a general increasing trend in pesticide sales between 2013 and 2017. Quantity of Pesticides Sold in Canada (2013-2017) Kilograms of active ingredients (millions) 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Year Figure 1: Quantity of pesticides sold in Canada between 2013 and 2017. In 2017, the 50 products with the greatest sales accounted for 73.7% of the total kg a.i. sold in Canada (97 322 165 kg a.i.). This was an increase in the overall quantity and relative amount from 2016, where the top 50 products accounted for 73.4% of total sales (88 140 587 kg a.i.). The top 10 active ingredients sold, presented in decreasing order in Table 1, made up 71.0% of total sales (93 830 052 kg a.i.). A comprehensive list with the rankings for all active ingredients sold in Canada in 2017 is provided in Appendix I. Seven active ingredients have remained on the top 10 list over the past five years (since 2013): glyphosate, available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite, creosote, 2,4-D, surfactant blend, glufosinate ammonium, and mineral oil. Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 4 Table 1: Top 10 Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Glyphosate Available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite Creosote Surfactant blend Glufosinate ammonium Borates 2,4-D Mineral oil Available chlorine, present as trichloro-striazinetrione Mancozeb Product Type Herbicide Antimicrobial Antimicrobial Other Herbicide Insecticide/Fungicide/Antimicrobial Herbicide Insecticide/Fungicide/Other Antimicrobial Fungicide Sales Information by Sector All products were grouped according to their areas of use into three sectors: Agricultural, NonAgricultural, and Domestic. (Data from each of the sectors are discussed in more detail in the following sections.) The groups were designed so there would be no overlap between the groupings. A product was placed into the Domestic sector if its classification was Domestic on its label. For the Nondomestic products, a product with any agricultural use on the label was grouped with the Agricultural sector, even if there were non-agricultural uses listed on the label. All remaining products were grouped as Non-agricultural. In some cases, if upon analysis, it was determined a product in the Agricultural sector had its main usage in the Non-agricultural sector, the product was moved to the Non-agricultural sector group. Agricultural sector products have constituted the largest amount of pesticides sold in Canada since data collection began, followed by Non-agricultural sector products and Domestic sector products. In 2017, 73.4% of pesticide sales in Canada were of Agricultural sector products (see Figure 2), whereas 21.4% were of Non-agricultural sector products and 5.2% were of Domestic sector products. The relative sales of products in the Agricultural sector decreased between 2016 and 2017 (decreasing from 75% to 73%), while the Non-agriculture sector increased from 20% to 21%, and the Domestic sector remained the same from 2016 to 2017 (see Figure 3 for data from 2013 to 2017).

Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 6 Within each sector, data were further broken down into product type groupings. These include: herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, antimicrobials, vertebrate controls, and others (for the remaining products). A product may have a number of different uses on the label. As the sales reporting does not collect data on the relative amount of a product used for a specific label use, the data may not necessarily be separated into only one product type. This means that there may be overlap between the product type groupings and these numbers should not be summed to obtain total quantities sold in Canada in 2017, as an over-reporting would occur. Agricultural Sector Products with agricultural uses accounted for 73.4% of pesticide sales in Canada in 2017. There was an 8.0 % increase in Agricultural sector pesticide sales from 2016 (89 761 575 kg a.i.) to 2017 (96 953 819 kg a.i.). Herbicides accounted for 77.5% of agricultural sector pesticide sales, followed by fungicides (10.0%), insecticides (4.4%), antimicrobials (3.4%), and others (6.0%) (Figure 4). Vertebrate controls (0.04%) accounted for very small quantities of agricultural pesticides sold in 2017 and have been included in the “others” category. Within the Agricultural sector, sales by product type have been consistent, with only small changes seen in the percentage of sales in each type throughout the years reported.

Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 7 The top 10 active ingredients sold with agricultural uses are shown in Table 2 in decreasing order. Seven of the top 10 agricultural active ingredients were herbicides and adjuvants that are used in conjunction with herbicides. These top 10 active ingredients accounted for 76% of the Agricultural sector pesticides sold. Seven active ingredients have remained in the top 10 over the last five years: glyphosate, 2,4-D, MCPA, glufosinate ammonium, mineral oil, surfactant blend, and mancozeb. Table 2: Top 10 Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 in the Agricultural Sector Active Ingredient Glyphosate Surfactant blend Available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite Glufosinate ammonium 2,4-D Mineral oil Mancozeb MCPA Bromoxynil S-metolachlor and R-enantiomer Product Type Herbicide Other Antimicrobial Herbicide Herbicide Insecticide/Fungicide/Other Fungicide Herbicide Herbicide Herbicide Non-Agricultural Sector Commercial products with non-agricultural uses accounted for 21.4% of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017 (compared to 20.1% in 2016). Non-agricultural sector pesticide sales increased 17.5% from 2016 to 2017 (from 24 113 430 kg a.i. to 28 329 167 kg a.i.). Over the past few years, there has been some fluctuation in Non-agricultural sector sales, with a large decrease in some years (2012) and smaller increases and decreases in other years. Antimicrobials accounted for 96.6% of non-agricultural sector sales followed by herbicides (2.2%), fungicides (0.8%), insecticides (0.3%), vertebrate control (0.05%), and others (0.4%) (Figure 5). These last four product types were combined in the figure due to the low quantities of pesticides sold. Fluctuations within the product type groupings have been evident since the start of pesticide sales reporting. However, antimicrobials consistently account for the majority of Non-agricultural sector pesticide sales (ranging from 86% to 96.8%).

The top 10 active ingredients sold with Non-agricultural sector uses were antimicrobials. These are presented in Table 3 in decreasing order. Three of the active ingredients also had other product types in addition to the antimicrobial type (copper, borates, and 2,2-dibromo-3nitrilopropionamide).Non-agricultural sector products are used predominantly in the wood preservation industry and for water treatment. The top 10 active ingredients accounted for 84.7% of the Non-agricultural sector pesticides sold. Five active ingredients have remained in the top 10 for Non-agricultural sector pesticides over the last five years: available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite, creosote, chromic acid, glutaraldehyde, and copper as elemental.

There was a 10% increase from 2016 (6 229 916 kg a.i.) to 2017 (6 852 128 kg a.i.) in Domestic sector pesticide sales. Changes from year to year in the Domestic sector may be dependent on changes in regional regulations (for example, restrictions at the municipal or provincial level), as well as changes in weather (for example, hot and sunny summers may result in increased sales of swimming pool and spa products) and changes in the marketing strategies of specific products. Antimicrobial products accounted for 60.8% of domestic pesticides sold in Canada (Figure 6) (mainly sales of swimming pool and spa products) followed by herbicides (28.9%), insecticides (8.6%), vertebrate controls (1.7%), fungicides (0.3%), and “other” products (0.04%). These last three product types were combined in Figure 6. The Domestic sector has seen fluctuation from year to year in the product-type groupings.

The top 10 active ingredients sold for use in the Domestic sector are from three product type groups: antimicrobials, herbicides, and insecticides. They are presented in Table 4 in decreasing order. These active ingredients accounted for 90.1% of the Domestic sector pesticides sold. Of the top 10 products, seven are used for swimming pools and spas. Six active ingredients have remained in the top 10 over the last five years: available chlorine, present as calcium hypochlorite, available chlorine, present as trichloro-s- triazinetrione, n-alkyl (40% C12, 50% C14, 10% C16) dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, poly[oxyethylene(dimethyliminio)ethylene(dimethyliminio) ethylene dichloride], DEET, and available bromine present as 1-bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin and related hydantoins.

Sales Information by Product Type In the following sections, all pesticides are discussed according to their product type (including herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, antimicrobials, vertebrate controls, and other product types). As previously discussed, a product may have a number of different uses on the label. As the sales reporting does not collect data on the relative amount of a product used for a specific label use, the data may not necessarily be separated into only one product type. This means that there may be overlap between the product type groupings and these numbers should not be summed to obtain total quantities sold in Canada in 2017, as an over-reporting would occur. Herbicides Herbicides accounted for 58.8% (77 765 728 kg a.i.) of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017. This is an increase from 2016 when herbicides accounted for 57.0% of all pesticides sold. This translates into an increase of 13.5% in the quantities of herbicides sold from 2016 (68 504 191 kg a.i.) to 2017 (77 765 728 kg a.i.). The top 10 herbicides sold in 2017, as listed in Table 5 in decreasing order, accounted for 89.4% of all herbicide sales in Canada and 52.9% of pesticide sales overall. Six active ingredients have remained in the top 10 over the last five years: glyphosate, glufosinate ammonium, 2,4-D, MCPA, bromoxynil, and S-metolachlor and R-enantiomer. Table 5: Top 10 Herbicide Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Glyphosate Glufosinate ammonium 2,4-D Corn gluten meal MCPA Bromoxynil S-metolachlor and R-enantiomer Bentazon (present as sodium salt) Diquat Metam-sodium Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 12 Insecticides Insecticides accounted for 3.7% (4 932 766 kg a.i.) of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017. Insecticide sales have remained relatively low during the years of reporting, with the highest quantities sold in 2016 (5 744 585 kg a.i.) and the lowest in 2011 (4 112 386 kg a.i.). Many of the insecticides are used in agricultural settings, though the fifth-most sold insecticide (DEET) is used only in the Domestic sector. The top 10 insecticides sold in 2017, as listed in Table 6 in decreasing order, accounted for 78.7% of all insecticides sales in Canada and 2.9% of pesticide sales overall. Six insecticides have remained in the top 10 during the last five years of reporting: mineral oil, hydrogen peroxide, chlorpyrifos, silicon dioxide, DEET, and sulphur. Table 6: Top 10 Insecticide Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Mineral oil Hydrogen peroxide Sulphur Chlorpyrifos DEET* Dimethoate Thiamethoxam Malathion Clothianidin Silicon dioxide *Since DEET is an insect repellent, it has been grouped with the insecticides. Fungicides Fungicides accounted for 7.5% (9 928 052 kg a.i.) of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017. Fungicide sales have remained relatively low throughout the reporting years, with a high in 2014 (9 939 107 kg a.i.) and a low in 2010 (5 784 829 kg a.i.). The vast majority of fungicides are used in the Agricultural sector (97.6%). The top 10 fungicides sold in Canada in 2017, as listed in Table 7 in decreasing order, accounted for 72.2% of fungicide sales and 5.4% of pesticide sales overall. Seven of the active ingredients have remained in the top 10 in the last five years of reporting: chlorothalonil, mancozeb, metamsodium, pyraclostrobin, prothioconazole, chloropicrin, and sulphur. Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 13 Table 7: Top 10 Fungicide Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Mancozeb Chlorothalonil Metam-sodium Chloropicrin Prothioconazole Sulphur Pyraclostrobin Boscalid Tebuconazole Mono- and dibasic sodium, potassium, and ammonium phosphites Antimicrobials Antimicrobials accounted for 26.4% (34 864 449 kg a.i.) of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017. While most of the antimicrobial active ingredients are used in the Non-agricultural sector, there are a number where the majority of the active ingredient is sold in the Domestic sector. This is true of some of the active ingredients containing available chlorine and available bromine. The high volumes are due to large quantities used in swimming pools and spas, which are mostly for Domestic use. The top 10 antimicrobial active ingredients sold in 2017, as listed in Table 8 in decreasing order, accounted for 83.2% of all antimicrobial sales in Canada and 22.0% of pesticide sales overall. Six of the active ingredients have remained in the top 10 in the last five years of reporting: available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite, as calcium hypochlorite, and as trichloro-striazinetrione, creosote, glutaraldehyde, and copper as elemental. Table 8: Top 10 Antimicrobial Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Available chlorine, present as sodium hypochlorite Creosote Borates Available chlorine, present as trichloro-s-triazinetrione Glutaraldehyde Copper as elemental Available chlorine, present as calcium hypochlorite Sodium chlorite 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide Tetrakis (hydroxymethyl) phosphonium sulfate (THPS) Pest Control Products Sales Report for 2017 Page 14 Vertebrate Control Vertebrate controls accounted for 0.12% (163 405 kg a.i.) of all pesticides sold in Canada in 2017. Since sales data collection began in Canada, products for vertebrate control have always accounted for a very small and consistent amount of overall pesticide sales. The top 10 vertebrate controls, as listed in Table 9 in decreasing order, accounted for 97.7% of all vertebrate control sales in 2017 and 0.12% of pesticide sales overall. Eight of the active ingredients have remained in the top 10 in the last five years: carbon dioxide gas, cellulose (from powdered corn cobs), aluminum phosphide, sulphur, dried blood, fish meal mixture, thiram, and zinc phosphide. Table 9: Top 10 Vertebrate Control Active Ingredients Sold in Canada in 2017 Active Ingredient Cellulose (from powdered corn cobs) Aluminum phosphide Carbon dioxide gas Dried blood Sulphur Zinc phosphide Fish meal mixture Thiram Brassica hirta white mustard seed powder Oil of black pepper Others Products fall into the “Others” type when they include uses that are not classified in any of the groups above and include adjuvants, nematicides, and molluscicides. These “other” products accounted for 4.5% (5 958 314 kg a.i.) of pesticide sales in Canada in 2017. Sales in this category have fluctuated slightly over the years of reporting, but have remained fairly low, with a high in 2016 (7 852 564 kg a.i.) and a low in 2008 (2 033 691 kg a.i.). The majority of the label uses of these other active ingredients are in the Agricultural sector (98.4%). The top 10 active ingredients sold in Canada in 2017 that fall into this type are listed in Table 10 in decreasing order and accounted for 99.8% of “other” type sales and 4.5% of pesticide sales overall. Eight of the active ingredients have remained in the top 10 in the last five years of reporting: surfactant blend, mineral oil, nonylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, paraffin based petroleum oil, octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, triglyceride ethoxylate, polyoxyalkylated alkyl phosphate ester and ethoxylated alcohol, C9-11.

In 2017, there were 175 active ingredients identified as biopesticides, which accounted for 1002 registered products. The 402 end-use biopesticide products reported as sold have been broken into two groups: 1) those products which could be converted into kg a.i. and 2) microbial products that could not be converted into kg a.i. It is important to note that biopesticide sales are represented in this subsection in addition to being included in each individual product type section above (for example, herbicides, insecticides). The 316 products that could be converted to kg a.i. accounted for 5.7% of total pesticide sales (7 533 464 kg a.i.) in 2017. There was an 8.0% decrease in biopesticide sales from 2016 (8 190 690 kg a.i.) to 2017. The sales of biopesticides have fluctuated in the years in which data have been collected. Insecticides accounted for 38.8% of the biopesticide sales in 2017 (Figure 7), followed by herbicides (34.6%), fungicides (17.8%), antimicrobials (8.2%), “others” (4.4%), and vertebrate controls (1.6%).

The top 10 biopesticide active ingredients sold in Canada are listed in Table 11 in decreasing order. The top 10 active ingredients accounted for 89.5% of sales of biopesticides that could be converted to kg a.i. and 5.1% of pesticide sales overall. Seven of the active ingredients have remained in the top 10 over the last five years: corn gluten meal, mineral oil, sulphur, N-decanol, hydrogen peroxide, mono- and dipotassium phosphite, and mono- and dibasic sodium, potassium, and ammonium phosphites.

The amount of products sold in 2017 of these is listed in Table 12. Table 12: Quantity of Microbials Sold in Canada in 2017 Units of Product Sold Litres (microbials) Kilograms (microbials) Total 919 204 391 152 Sales Information by Chemical Group Active ingredients have been grouped into chemical groups to present an alternate way of viewing Canadian pesticide sales information (Table 13). The chemical groups were realigned with the Quebec Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment and Climate Change listings (Quebec, 2016) and are outlined in Appendix II. In 2017, the chemical group with the largest proportion of sales was the “Phosphonic and phosphinic acids” group at 45%, followed by the “Inorganics” group at 16%.
