Is there any group appealing to government agencies to ban the substance? If so, it would be useful to have that information as it seems inevitable that the chemical will continue to contaminate soil.

Owners of horses buy hay from a variety of suppliers. The suppliers may have sprayed their hay with a herbicide containing amiinopyralid. They would not be privy to the information that the manure of their animals may be contaminated with aminopyralid and could easily pass that contaiminated manure onto gardeners.
