Описание: This book is based on presentations at Formulations Forum `94, a comprehensive first-ever international symposium, specifically devoted to reviewing developments and issues in agricultural formulations, covering the regulation of inert ingredients and adjuvants in the U.S. and Europe.
Описание: This study combines econometrics and agent-based modelling to evaluate the impacts of a range of pesticide use reduction strategies in the context of Thai highland agriculture. Pesticide productivity and pesticide overuse are quantified, while determinants of the adoption of innovations in pesticide use reduction are estimated. On that basis, the Mathematical Programming-based Multi Agent System (MPMAS), a bio-economic simulation model, is used to ex-ante assess the adoption of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in combination with a series of market-based instruments that boost the transition to more sustainable pest control practices. The MPMAS simulation results demonstrate that, over five years, it is possible to bring down levels of pesticide use significantly without income trade-offs for farm agents. A proportional tax, increasing the price of synthetic pesticides by 50% on average, together with bio-pesticide subsidies for IPM proves to be the most cost-effective and practicable policy package. IPM practices are adopted by up to 75% of farm agents and pesticide use reductions reach up to 34%.

Описание: Pesticide handlers have never had an easy time keeping abreast of the regulations that affect them, but it is getting even more difficult as public pressure adds more layers of new rules.

Описание:
Integrated Analytical Approaches for Pesticide Management provides proven laboratory practices/examples and methods necessary in analysis to control pesticides in food and water in various environments. This is a practical and useful reference to anyone in a laboratory setting needing a systematic way to detect and control agricultural contaminants for a safe food supply.
This reference provides insight into good laboratory practices and examples of methods used in individual specialist laboratories enabling stakeholders in the agri-food industry to appreciate the importance of proven, reliable data and the associated quality assurance approaches for end product testing for toxic levels of contaminant residues in food.
The book is written in a rigorous but simple way to make sure that a broad range of readers can appreciate the technical content. A number of information sources are included for further consultation by the laboratories. It is the very practical nature of the book as well as the generic guidelines that distinguishes it from others in the market which makes it unique.
Provides coverage of risk assessment and effective testing technologies
Covers generic guidelines on pesticide analysis on different environmental matrices for use to the developed and developing world
Presents the most up-to-date information in research sample testing preparation and method validation to detect pesticide residues in food
Includes examples of each method for practical application
Demonstrates proven, reliable research data and the associated quality assurance approaches for end product testing for food, water, and soil sediment
Describes the concept of integrated analytical approaches for pesticide management practices

Описание: The use of pesticides to control agricultural pests both benefits farm production and imposes health and environmental costs on producers and society. This title, first published in 1988, includes an application of the author’s methodology to tomato production, in which Antle illuminates the roles that alternative methods of pest management play in producer welfare. He also develops a more general empirical framework for studying producer welfare under uncertainty – a framework in which production risk, sequential decision making, and attitudes toward risk are integrated. This title will be of interest to students of environmental studies.
Описание: The Meeting evaluated 19 pesticides, including acetochlor and chlorantraniliprole, for toxicity or residues, or both. It estimated maximum residue levels and made recommendations for use by the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues, and estimated supervised trials median residue (STMR) and highest residue (HR) levels as a basis for estimating dietary exposures.
The FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food was responsible for reviewing residue and analytical aspects of the pesticides under consideration, including data on their metabolism, their fate in the environment and use patterns, and for estimating the maximum levels of residues that might occur as a result of use of the pesticides according to good agricultural practice.
