| Summary: | Abstract Not Available – First paragraph follows:
Increasingly, pesticide registrations are being rescinded by state and federal regulatory
actions and by private sector decisions to withdraw pesticide products. Public concern,
regulatory complexity, and scientific understanding of the hazards of pesticides are
likely to increase in the near future. California faces the potential loss of a large
part of the currently employed chemical pest control technology. An understanding
of these pesticide losses will help California's agricultural community identify and
adopt effective and acceptable alternative pest management techniques and help the
University of California make informed decisions on directing its research and extension
resources. |
