HDR1012000170161219951500AGRICULTURAL CHEMICAL USAGE HDR2012000170161219951500AG CH NARRATIVE Overview This publication, Restricted Use Pesticides Summary, is issued annually by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). The report contains, for selected crops, a summary of the kinds and quantities of chemicals that are restricted use pesticides (RUP) at the federal level. All labeled uses are not restricted on an active ingredient. In some cases only certain formulations, concentrations, or uses are restricted. Listed by crop are each of the active ingredients for RUPs for which there were sufficient reports to publish data. All data in this report refer to the 1994 crop year. During 1994, NASS surveyed growers of field crops and vegetables to obtain on farm usage of all restricted and general use pesticides. The results of those surveys have been published in separate reports 1/. NASS extracted the data about chemicals classified as RUP at the national level from those reports in order to provide this publication. Survey Procedures NASS enumerators personally interviewed farm operators or managers to obtain information on chemical applications made on the sampled farm operations. The survey instrument that was used obtained chemical application data by product name or trade name. A thorough review compared reported data with manufacturer's label recommendations and with data from other farm operators using the same product. Following this review, product information was converted to an active ingredient level, which was the basis for the chemical usage estimates in this publication. Table Notes Area applied refers to acres receiving one or more applications of a specific agricultural chemical. Coverage estimates and total active ingredient applied are based on the acreage estimates as published in the "Crop Production 1994 Summary" or "Vegetables 1994 Summary" and the Agricultural Chemical Usage survey data. Data may not multiply across due to rounding. 1/ Agricultural Chemical Usage - 1994 Field Crops Summary, March 1995. Agricultural Chemical Usage - Vegetables 1994 Summary, July 1995. Field Crops The 1994 chemical use survey program includes corn, cotton, potatoes, soybeans, and wheat. States surveyed represent 71 to 94 percent of the U.S. acreage for these crops. The herbicide atrazine was the most widely used restricted use pesticide on any crop, with 68 percent of the corn acres reported as being treated. Other restricted use herbicides applied on more than 15 percent of planted acres were alachlor on corn, and cyanazine on both corn and cotton. Acetochlor was applied to 7 percent of the corn acres. A wide range of restricted use insecticides were applied. Several restricted use insecticides were applied on cotton but only aldicarb, lambdacyhalothrin, and methyl parathion were used on more than 15 percent of the planted acres. The survey indicates a broad use of insecticides on potatoes. Phorate and methamidophos were used on over one quarter of the acres planted to potatoes. Insecticides, used on 10 to 20 percent of the acreage, included azinphos-methyl, carbofuran, esfenvalerate, and permethrin. The fungicide triphenyltin hydroxide was applied on 11 percent of the potato acres planted. Paraquat was used as a herbicide on corn and soybeans and as a defoliant and vine killer on cotton and potatoes. Metam-sodium and dichloropropene were used for soil fumigation for potatoes and sulfuric acid was applied to kill vines to facilitate potato harvest. Few restricted use pesticides were used on soybeans, winter wheat, durum wheat, or other spring wheat. Vegetable Crops Growers in 14 states were surveyed to obtain chemical use data on 21 vegetable crops in 1994. The data on applications cover the period immediately following harvest of the 1993 crop through harvest of the 1994 crop. Only a few different restricted use herbicides were applied to vegetable crops. Atrazine was applied to more than half of all sweet corn acres, while alachlor and cyanazine were used on 32 and 24 percent, respectively, of sweet corn for processing. Pronamide was used on nearly 50 percent of the lettuce acres. Paraquat was used on 10 to 32 percent of the acres for asparagus, fresh market cucumbers, peppers, strawberries, and fresh market tomatoes. Many of the restricted use insecticides were utilized extensively across a broad range of vegetables. Permethrin was applied to 25 percent or more of the acres planted to broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, sweet corn for processing, lettuce, bell peppers, spinach, and tomatoes for fresh market. Methomyl usage exceeded 50 percent of planted acres for celery, sweet corn for fresh market, lettuces, and bell peppers. Other restricted use insecticides applied to more than 50 percent of planted acres were esfenvalerate on broccoli, cauliflower, and fresh market tomatoes, oxydemeton-methyl on broccoli and cauliflower, oxamyl on celery, cypermethrin on head lettuce, mevinphos on other lettuce, and methamidophos on fresh market tomatoes. Abamectin was the most widely used restricted use insecticide on strawberries, and was also used extensively on celery. Other restricted use pesticides with general usage included methyl bromide and chloropicrin. Methyl bromide was used on 61 percent of the strawberry acres, 48 percent of the fresh tomato acres, and about 30 percent of the bell pepper and eggplant acres. Chloropicrin usage ranged from 11 to 45 percent for those same crops. Metam sodium was used on 22 percent of the processing tomatoes acres.

Trade name is the actual product name given to a specific formulation of a pesticide product. A formulation contains a specific concentration of the active ingredient, carrier materials, and other ingredients such as emulsifiers and wetting agents. Some formulations as in the case of pre-mixes, can contain more than one active ingredient. Common name is the published name for an active ingredient. Rate per application refers to the average number of pounds of a pesticide active ingredient applied to an acre of land in one application. Rate per crop year is the average number of pounds of an ingredient applied to one acre of land counting multiple applications. Number of applications is the average number of times a treated acre receives a specific agricultural chemical. Area applied represents the percent of crop acres receiving one or more applications of a specific ingredient. This report does not contain acre treatments. However, acre treatments can be calculated by multiplying the acres planted by the percent of area applied and the average number of applications. Crop year refers to the period immediately following harvest for the previous year through harvest of the current year. The 1994 crop year will overlap the 1993 and 1994 calendar years in some states.
