The Manage Resistance Now initiative is a collaborative effort of industry, academia, and government experts, brought together by CropLife Canada. We are dedicated to helping growers and industry proactively manage the development of resistance to pest control tools to support the long-term sustainability of the agriculture industry.   

Pest resistance is a serious concern for the broader agricultural community, with herbicide resistance alone costing Canadian growers an estimated $1.1-1.5 billion annually.  We all need to work together in the fight against resistance. 

Partners

At Manage Resistance Now, our partners play a crucial role in expanding our reach and impact. Partners benefit from increased visibility through our platform, collaboration opportunities to co-create content, and being part of a community dedicated to making a difference by equipping others with the tools and knowledge to manage resistance and thrive in adversity. 

The Resistance Management Committee

CropLife Canada’s resistance management committee is represented by a subset of CropLife Canada members whose mandate it is to help minimize the development of weed, insect, and disease resistance in Canada to member plant science innovations in both the chemistry and plant biotechnology spheres, in order to enhance product longevity and promote environmental sustainability.
