Karnal Bunt; Regulated Areas

We are amending the regulations by adding new areas to the list of areas regulated because of Karnal bunt, a fungal disease of wheat, due to the detection during the 2000 harvest of bunted kernels in grain grown in these areas. We are also removing certain fields from regulation because wheat is no longer grown in those fields or because fields previously classified as regulated areas have produced grain that has tested negative for Karnal bunt. These actions will help prevent the spread of Karnal bunt into noninfested areas of the United States and remove from regulation certain fields where restrictions no longer appear to be warranted.
