Location: Application Technology Research
Project Number: 0500-00007-112-000-D
Project Type: In-House Appropriated
Start Date: Jul 17, 2015
End Date: Jul 16, 2020
Objective:
Obtain performance data and/or residue samples or analyze crop samples to support
the registration of minor-use pesticides for food, ornamental and specialty crops.
Approach:
Minor-use pesticides alone or in combination with cultural and mechanical methods
will be evaluated under field, orchard, nursery and greenhouse conditions through
determination of pest control by species, crop injury and crop yield. Plant samples will be collected for determination of pesticide residues according to protocols and good laboratory practices specified by the National IR-4 Headquarters.
