Which statement about FIFRA is FALSE?

The statement indicating that FIFRA applies only to agricultural products is false. FIFRA, the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, regulates all pesticides, including those used in non-agricultural settings such as residential, commercial, and industrial areas. This means that both agricultural and non-agricultural pesticides are under the purview of FIFRA, ensuring proper labeling, use, and enforcement of safety standards across a wide range of pesticide products.

The other statements reflect true aspects of FIFRA. It allows for state restrictions on pesticides to be more stringent than federal regulations, which provides states with the flexibility to address local environmental concerns. FIFRA indeed regulates pesticide labeling to ensure that users are provided with critical information for safe and effective use. Additionally, FIFRA permits the use of emergency exemptions, allowing for the temporary use of unregistered pesticides in specific situations where there are urgent pest control needs.
