>Does this include greenhouse grown crops?  I was told by a phd type plant scientist here (Texas A&M University) that the former 'ban' on neonics did not include greenhouse grown crops.


According to theguardian article:

>The EU imposed a temporary ban on the use of the three key neonicotinoids on some crops in 2013. However, the new proposals are for a complete ban on their use in fields, with the only exception being for plants entirely grown in greenhouses.
