  1. Does anybody know where to see a comprehensive list of the crop vegetables typically affected by use of DCPA? Does it include cauliflower along with broccoli? Broccolini? Kale along with cabbage? It’s concerning that it says removal of these products could take months to years if contested.

  2. Start spraying gated communities with the pesticides and see how fast it gets banned.
