Rapid response screening tools for minimising off-site impact of rice pesti
1 September 2006 – 24 June 2010
This RIRDC report presents the development of rapid response tools for the purposes of integrated pesticide management leading to the environmental sustainability of rice-production systems.In recent years, increasing awareness of the potential adverse effects of pesticides on the environment has resulted in greater public pressure to assess, monitor and minimise off-site impacts. The application of pesticides for pest control in rice-based cropping systems is commonly practised in Australia.
