The AR16 licence in question is due to expire 27/01/2022 and in general any unsold product must be returned after this date to the supplier.  However, as stated on the licence itself, "Any product purchased by the end user may be used until the expiry date of the product". Therefore, the farmer in question may continue to use the distomicide product on their holding until the expiry date of the product itself without reference to the sale or supply licence date.
