Safe and Effective Use of Crop Protection Products in Developing Countries (CABI Publishing)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book reports the results of a seven year long research program that examined the best way to reduce pesticide use among low-income farmers in developing countries, while improving the effectiveness of the products, and safety practices. The study's aim was to investigate how to reduce
crop losses, while minimizing pest resistance in plants and harmful side effects to human health and the environment. India, Mexico and Zimbabwe were chosen as the three project countries, as they are similar in economic development, but have widely disparate socioculutural environments and
agricultural practices.
