Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Pesticide - Dangers of pesticides

Pesticides can present danger to consumers, bystanders, or workers during manufacture, transport, or during and after use. There is concern that pesticides used to control pests on food crops are dangerous to the consumer. These concerns are one reason for the organic food movement. Food crops, including many fruits and vegetables such as apples, celery, cherries, grapes, nectarines, peaches, pears, peppers, potatoes, red raspberries, spinach and strawberries may contain pesticide residues after being washed or peeled. Residues, permitted by ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Herbicide - History

Prior to the widespread use of chemical herbicides, cultural controls, such as altering soil pH, salinity, or fertility levels, were used to control weeds. Mechanical control (including tillage) was also (and still is) used to control weeds. The first widely used herbicide was 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, often abbreviated 2,4-D. It was developed by a British team during World War II and first saw widespread production and use in the late 1940s. It is easy and inexpensive to manufacture, and kills many broadleaf plants while leavin ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Pesticide - History

Since before 500 BC, humans have used pesticides to prevent damage to their crops. The first known pesticide was sulfur. By the 15th century, toxic chemicals such as arsenic, mercury and lead were being applied to crops to kill pests. In the 17th century, nicotine sulfate was extracted from tobacco leaves for use as an insecticide. The 19th century saw the introduction of two more natural pesticides, pyrethrum which is derived from crysanthemums, and rotenone which is derive ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Pesticide - Regulation

In the US, all materials intended for sale and use as pesticides must be registered with the EPA. The process may be long, complex and expensive. It requires studies to be performed that indicate whether the material is effective against the intended pest and safe to use. During the registration process, a pesticide label is created which contains directions for the proper use of the material. Use inconsistent with the label is ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Pesticide - Managing pest resistance

Pest resistance to a pesticide is commonly managed through pesticide rotation or tankmixing with other pesticides. Rotation involves alternating among pesticide classes with different modes of action to delay the onset of or mitigate existing pest resistance. Different pesticide classes may be active on different pest sites of action. The U.S. Environmental Agency (EPA or USEPA), for example, designates different classes of fungicides. Pesticide manufacturers may, on product labeling, require that no more than a specified number of co ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Herbicide - Classification of herbicides

Herbicides can be grouped by activity, use, chemical family, mode of action, or type of vegetation controlled. By activity: Contact herbicides destroy only the plant tissue in contact with the chemical. Generally, these are the fastest acting herbicides. They are less effective on perennial plants, which are able to regrow from roots or tubers. Systemic herbicides are translocated through the plant, either from foliar application down to the roots, or from soil application up to the leaves. They can destroy a grea ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Herbicide - Application

Most herbicides are applied as water-based sprays using ground equipment. Ground equipment varies in design, but large areas can be sprayed using self-propelled sprayers equipped with a long boom, of 60 to 80 feet (20 to 25 m) with flat fan nozzles spaced about every 20 in (500 mm). Towed, handheld, and even horse-drawn sprayers are also used. Herbicides can also be applied aerially using helicopters or airplanes, and can be applied ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - United States Department of Agriculture - History

The United States had a largely agrarian economy early in its history. Officials in the federal government had long sought new and improved varieties of seeds, plants, and animals for importation to the United States. In 1836 Henry L. Ellsworth, a man interested in improving agriculture, became Commissioner of Patents, a position within the Department of State. He soon began collecting and distributing new varieties of seeds and plants through members of the Congress and agricultural societies. In 1839 Congress established the Agricultural Division within the Patent Office and allotted $1,000 for "the coll ...

Fungicide: Encyclopedia II - Pesticide misuse - Hazards to wildlife and livestock

Pesticide misuse can also endanger wildlife and other environmental resources. A Florida man was recently cited and fined $23,100 for using the pesticide aldecarb on deer carcasses to kill coyotes, for storing the pesticide in unlabeled containers, and not being a certified applicator. Specific label directions are given on materials that are toxic to bees, because these pollinators are considered an important environmental resource. A typical bee-protection label direction reads: "This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to di ...
