Target Information

Paraquat is a highly toxic herbicide used worldwide to control weeds and as a desiccant for certain crops before harvest. It is a food safety concern because of its potential for residues in animal feed. While it is not typically applied directly to animals, residues can be present on crops used for forage or feed. When animals consume contaminated feed, paraquat can accumulate, particularly in their kidneys, liver, and fat.
