Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the danger of incompatible mixed chemicals in pesticide tanks. Describes the reasons for incompatibility including water source, fertilizers, termperatures, incorrect mixing order and physical or chemical properties. Other important details inlcude the formulation of the tanks including the addition of adjuvants and surfactants.
