Implications of pesticide regulations
1981
Schaub, John R.
Extract: The implications of pesticide regulatory actions that prevent or restrict the availability of pesticides for agricultural purposes are discussed. The possible effects of restrictive actions are related to levels of production, cost of production, farm income, consumer prices, product quality, exports, energy conservation, and programs to improve environmental quality. It is noted that, to date, pesticide regulatory actions have not had significant economic impacts on agriculture, but individual producers have been adversely affected. Concerns over the use of pesticides and possible implications for human health and the environment will cause pesticide regulations to be a continuing issue.
