Agricultural Research Services & GLP Field Trials
Our mission is to provide quality research to the crop protection and production industry for the registration of new pest control, biotechnology, and nutrient products for plant agriculture. We believe that people love doing business with people who love what they do.
GLP Residue Trials
Tall Pines Agricultural Research Ltd. is Standards Council of Canada (SCC) accredited to conduct Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) studies and has maintained accreditation since 2019. We perform residue field trials in accordance with OECD and EPA GLP principles and applicable regulatory guidelines, generating data suitable for Canadian, U.S., and international regulatory submissions.
We are experienced in conducting residue trials on raw agricultural commodities (RAC) and soil dissipation studies. All trials are carefully designed and executed to ensure data integrity, traceability, and full reconstructability, meeting the expectations of regulatory authorities.
All GLP residue studies are conducted in strict accordance with approved study protocols and established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Trial execution, sampling, handling, and storage procedures are performed to ensure data integrity, traceability, and full reconstructability. We work closely with our clients throughout the study to ensure alignment with regulatory expectations and study objectives.
We are committed to delivering accurate, reliable, and defensible residue data, supported by clear documentation and transparent communication from study initiation through final reporting.
Efficacy Trials
We conduct field-based efficacy trials to evaluate the performance of herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, biological products, adjuvants, and fertilizers across a wide range of cropping systems.
Our efficacy studies are designed to generate reliable, repeatable performance data under realistic agricultural conditions. Trials are conducted using appropriate experimental designs, replicated plots, and standardized assessment methods to ensure accurate evaluation of product performance, crop response, and target control.
We support efficacy testing in field and row crops as well as fruit and vegetable (horticultural) crops, allowing us to tailor studies to specific crop–pest–environment interactions. Assessments may include weed, insect, and disease control ratings, crop safety and phytotoxicity evaluations, yield and quality observations, and environmental condition monitoring.
Efficacy trials at Tall Pines Agricultural Research Ltd. are suitable for product development, label expansion, and regulatory submission support, providing high-quality data to inform decision-making and advance products toward commercialization.
Crops
We conduct agricultural research across a wide range of field, row, vegetable, and specialty crops. At our facilities in Ontario, we grow and manage multiple field and vegetable crops under controlled trial conditions to support efficacy and GLP study requirements.​ In addition, through our established cooperator network, we have access to a broad range of specialty and horticultural crops grown across Ontario.
