A bill has been approved with a 7-5 party-line vote in the Minnesota House Agriculture Committee that would regulate the sale, use and disposal of seed treated with neonicotinoids. The bill is in reaction to environmental failure in Mead, Nebraska where treated seed was used to produce ethanol. A companion bill awaits action in the Minnesota Senate Agriculture Committee.
