Fungicides, Herbicides, Insecticides, Nematicides, and Plant Growth Regulators

Pesticide suggestions are based on the need for pest control under average conditions. Applying reduced amounts of pesticide is practical under relatively ideal conditions, which include using highly effective chemicals and efficient sprayers, as well as having an orchard with no special pest problems. Conditions can change rapidly, especially during periods of unusually moist weather. Be prepared to adjust the amount and frequency of pesticide applications to handle such situations in accordance with label limitations.

The pesticides listed below appear in alphabetical order. They are described under the trade name if that trade name is unique or under the common name if more than one trade name exists for the same material. Common names begin with a lowercase letter, and trade names begin with a capital letter. Restricted-use pesticides are indicated by an asterisk. Each chemical is followed by notes describing its activity and some special use characteristics. This information does not substitute for label information. Before applying any pesticide, read and follow label directions. The full text of most pesticide labels and Material Safety Data Sheets can be found at the Crop Data Management Systems Inc. Web site or at the Greenbook Free Web Search (C&P Press, Inc.).
