Abstract
A computerized approach to gathering, summarizing, archiving, and analyzing data on pesticide use for apples grown across the state was developed. The approach characterizes multiyear (1980–1982) trends in the use of insecticides, acaricides, and fungicides in the Michigan apple industry. We discuss the implications of instituting this type of data-collection program as a part of an overall integrated pest management program, and also for other state and federal uses.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
