"This study book is made available to students enrolled in the "Safety and Pesticide Usage" course to serve as a training aid and guide. We hope you will find the material presented here useful in your everyday work. Continued requests for more in-depth information about pesticides, both for general knowledge and for use in specific areas, prompted us to develop this course to touch on specific areas of interest and practical application of previously presented theory. Although, for the most part, study bookybook contains papers prepared especially for this course, it should not be considered a citable source. Any original research data contained in these papers will be published by the authors in another form in referenced scientific journals, Should you be unable to locate the appropriate citable reference for these data in the future, we ask that you contact the author directly. We take this opportunity to express our appreciation to the authors for their participation in this training course and to wish you the students rapid progress toward our common goal of adequate protection of human health and the environment.
