Synthesis and Chemistry of Agrochemicals VI

The increasing requirements of safety, metabolism, environmental effects, and efficacy bring difficult requirements to the discovery process for new agrochemicals. How these changing requirements are met is the subject of this volume. It examines the recent trends in research for safe, efficient, and biologically active agrochemicals. This 30-chapter volume is a complete reference book that includes current updates and trends in the field of agrochemicals. Topics in the book include herbicides in agriculture, control of insects and acrids in agriculture, and control of fungal disease in agriculture.
