Abstract/Contents: | "Chlorpyrifos is a broad spectrum organophosphorus insecticide of moderate to low toxicity to mammals. Extensive trials have been carried out in Europe for the control of soil insect pests using rates between 0.5 kg a.i./ha and 4 kg a.i./ha depending on the pest, formulation and method of application. Good control has been obtained of the following: Wireworms (Agriotes spp.), cutworms (Agrotis spp., Euxoa spp.), pigmy mangold beetle (Atomaria linearis), cabbage root fly (Erioischia brassicae), leatherjackets (Tipula spp.), wheat bulb fly (Leptohylemyia coarctata), onion fly (Delia antiqua), bean seed fly (Delia platura), and symphylids (Scutigerella immaculata). Phytotoxicity is not a problem when the chemical is applied using correct dosages and methods of application. Crop residues are well within accepted tolerance limits." |
