Dangers of Mercurial Treated Grain In Wheat Industry
The practice of treating seed with mercurial dusts and compounds to prevent disease poses risks to farmers handlers and consumers. Last year the Grain Inspection Department condemned 37 railcars of grain as unfit for human consumption due to mercurial treatment. Small amounts of treated seed left over from seeding can enter grain delivered to elevators and export channels.

Seed contamination fears spur grain cleaning measures
Officials warn that even trace amounts of treated seed can ruin an entire carload of high quality grain. Precautions include avoiding treated seed in seed grain shipments and ensuring no mercurial compounds contaminate grain at elevators. Farmers are urged to thoroughly clean wagons to prevent mixed loads.
