The development of the national pesticide use database was supported by a Cooperative

Agreement with the Office of Pest Management Policy (OPMP) of the United States

Department of Agriculture (USDA). We thank Al Jennings and Therese Murtagh for

their encouragement and patience for the time required to complete the project. Kent

Smith of OPMP served as the Project Officer.

Kathryn Kimble-Day and Dennis Kopp provided timely access to pesticide use reports

funded by USDA’s CSREES. Larry Wilhoit of CALDPR and Norm Bennett of USDANASS provided electronic versions of databases that greatly facilitated our project’s

completion.

Several hundred extension service specialists provided us data for this project. This

project could not have been completed without their cooperation. They are all listed in

the reference list. The database was reviewed by industry specialists in the agricultural

chemical industry and by University pesticide information specialists; these individuals

are listed in Tables 6 and 7.

Of all of the individuals who helped us with this database, several were particularly

noteworthy for the efforts which they made in assembling and reviewing data for this

project: Jere Downing of the Cranberry Institute, Rocky Lundy of the Mint Industry

Research Council, Ann George of the U.S. Hop Industry Plant Protection Committee,

Dudley Smith of Texas A&M University and William Spencer of Tomen Agro.
2.0 Introduction

In 1995, the National Center for Food and Agricultural Policy (NCFAP) issued Pesticide

Use in U.S. Crop Production: National Summary Report, which summarized the national

use of 200 active ingredients on 87 crops. The 1995 report was compiled from a statelevel usage database that quantified the use of each active ingredient by crop and state.1

The 1995 NCFAP report quantified pesticide usage based on crop acreage for 1992 and

usage patterns for the years 1990-93. The 1995 NCFAP report is referred to as the “1992

Report” in the following discussion. NCFAP has prepared a more recent version of the

national pesticide usage database. This database is representative of usage patterns for

the years of 1995-98 and is keyed to crop acreage data for 1997. The more recent

NCFAP report is referred to as the “1997 Report” in the following discussion. All of the

1992 data records and summaries are included in the 1997 Report and database for

comparison purposes.

The same basic methodology was used by NCFAP in assembling the 1997 Report as was

used in assembling the 1992 Report: NCFAP has organized state and crop pesticide use

data from publicly available reports into a national database of pesticide use in U.S. crop

production. For states and crops not covered completely by the available surveys and

reports, NCFAP conducted a survey of extension service specialists for pesticide use

profile information. For some states and crops for which there are no published surveys

or reports and no expert opinions from extension service specialists, imputations were

made by assuming that the state’s pesticide use profile is identical to that of a

neighboring state.

Policy, February 1995.
3.0 Database Parameters

NCFAP’s 1997 pesticide usage database contains estimates for 220 active ingredients.

These active ingredients and their product names are listed in Table 1A. Their

manufacturers/registrants are listed in Table 1B. Fifteen active ingredients that had been

included in the 1992 database are not included in the 1997 database due to their

cancellation, withdrawal or minimal use in crop production: anilazine, carboxin,

dinocap, thiabendazole, chloramben, diethatyl ethyl, diphenamid, isopropalin, methazole,

siduron, tridiphane, fenvalerate, mevinphos, trichlorfon and trimethacarb. Thirty-five

new active ingredients have been added to the 1997 usage database. These active

ingredients can be identified in Tables 1A and 1B. (They have been assigned a triple

asterisk: “***”)

The 1997 database includes four active ingredients that have been withdrawn, canceled or

for which production has ceased since 1997. These active ingredients have been assigned

a single asterisk: “*” or a double asterisk: “**” in Tables 1A and 1B.

Thirty-seven of the active ingredients have been classified as fungicides; 66 are classified

as insecticides; 96 are classified as herbicides; and 21 are classified in the “other”

category, that includes fumigants, growth regulators and defoliants. Each active

ingredient is assigned to a single use category even though some active ingredients are

used for multiple purposes. For example, although paraquat is used as both an herbicide

and as a defoliant, all of paraquat’s uses are included in the herbicide category. Active

ingredients that have some use as nematicides are included either in the insecticide

category (such as fenamiphos, oxamyl and aldicarb) or in the “other” category (the

fumigants 1,3-D, methyl bromide, etc.).

The NCFAP database (both 1992 and 1997 versions) includes applications to cropland

only (foliar, soil and in furrow applications). Non-cropland applications are not included.

Seed treatments, greenhouse uses, ornamental uses, livestock uses, rodenticides,
mushrooms, beekeeping, animal repellants and postharvest uses also are not included.

Applications to non-bearing orchards or vineyards are not included. Pesticide usage in

governmental Areawide Eradication programs (such as boll weevil, Med-fly) are not

included.

Some crop uses of particular active ingredients for which usage has been estimated in the

1997 database have been canceled or withdrawn subsequently. For example, propargite

use is quantified in the 1997 report for apricots, green beans peaches and plums even

though these crops had been removed from labels prior to 1997. They are included since

there was legally labeled material still available for farmers to use in 1997. In some cases

the 1997 database shows usage for crops that have been canceled for active ingredients

since 1997. For example, the 1997 database includes 16 crops for methamidophos;

subsequent to 1997, 13 of these crop uses were canceled. In some cases, some crop uses

for an active ingredient included in the 1997 database are not labeled; However, usage

was permitted in 1997 under a Section 18 emergency registration.

Not all active ingredients used in U.S. crop production are included in the 1997 database.

Active ingredients used on a very small number of acres are not included (such as

rotenone, sabadilla). Active ingredients that have been introduced since 1997 also are not

included (such as imazamox, glufosinate, carfentrazone, isoxaflutole and cloransulam).

Eighty-seven crops are included in the 1997 database. These are the same 87 crops

included in the 1992 database. Several minor changes have been made. The names of

several crops have been changed. In the 1992 database the designation was “filberts” and

“plums”; these crop names have been changed to “hazelnuts” and “plums/prunes” in the

1997 report. The crop category “sod” refers to sod farms.

Estimates of crop acreage by state were drawn from the 1997 Census of Agriculture.2

 In

some cases, the Census reports several categories for a crop, such as “sorghum for grain,”

“sorghum for dry forage,” and “sorghum for silage.” In these cases, NCFAP has added

 

2

 Available on line at www.nass.usda.gov/census/
the acreage estimates from the separate categories together into a single category for

“sorghum.” Table 2 lists the 87 crops included in the NCFAP database and identifies the

corresponding Census categories. NCFAP does not include all states with acreage of

these 87 crops. Generally, NCFAP includes states that account for at least 90% of U.S.

acreage. Table 2 lists for each crop the national Census acreage total and the total for the

states included in the NCFAP database. As can be seen, the 1997 NCFAP database

includes more than 90% of the national acreage for most crops. In the summary tables of

pesticide use, NCFAP uses the national crop acreage total for only those states included

in its database.

There are some differences in the acreage estimates included for some crops in the 1992

and 1997 NCFAP databases. The 1992 database included several states with extremely

small acreage for certain crops because pesticide use data was readily available (for

example, 72 acres of cauliflower in Ohio). However, pesticide use data for these minor

acreage crops were not available for the 1997 database and no estimates were made.

There are 48 crop/state combinations (such as cauliflower/Ohio) for which estimates

were made in the 1992 database and not in the 1997 database. These dropped crop/state

combinations accounted for 42,533 total acres that were included in the 1992 database.

The dropped state/crop combinations are listed in Table 3. On the other hand, NCFAP

has added 19 crop/state combinations to the 1997 database that were not included in the

1992 database (such as cotton/Virginia). These newly included crop/state combinations

account for 7.6 million acres. The state/crop combinations added to the database are

listed in Table 4.

In the 1992 database, NCFAP used crop acreage estimates for fallowland and pasture that

were developed independently of the Census of Agriculture. In the 1997 database, the

acreage estimates for pasture and fallowland are drawn from the 1997 Census.

The 1997 Census did not publish or release state acreage totals in those cases for which

there are three or fewer growers of the crop in the state. In these cases the Census

suppresses the state acreage total and lists a “D” instead. For 14 crop/state combinations,
the 1997 NCFAP database uses the 1992 crop/state acreage estimates due to suppression

of the Census total for 1997. Those 14 state/crop combinations are listed in Table 5.

Many crops included in the Census of Agriculture are not included in the NCFAP

database: Chinese cabbage, mustard greens, chicory, endive, etc.

The NCFAP database is limited to the coterminous 48 states; Alaska and Hawaii are not

included.
4.0 Data Sources

The NCFAP 1997 pesticide use database is not specific for any particular year. While the

crop acreage data in the database represents 1997, the use surveys compiled for the

database cover the years 1994-1998.

The 1997 national database consists of 17,098 records that delineate the use of a specific

active ingredient on a crop in a specified state. Each line of data contains a reference

code that identifies the source of the data. These references are listed in section “10.0

References: 1997 Database” of this document. The sources of information are

categorized as follows:

• Surveys Conducted by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS)

(4,080 records)

The following 10 NASS Agricultural Chemical Usage surveys were used

in assembling the 1997 NCFAP database: Field Crops (1994, 1995, 1996,

1997, 1998), Vegetables (1994, 1996, 1998) and Fruits (1995, 1997).3

NCFAP uses the NASS estimates for the following two parameters: rate

per crop year (lbs/A) and area applied (%). The NCFAP record for a

particular active ingredient/crop/state combination is drawn directly from

a particular NASS report that is referenced. In some cases it was

necessary for NCFAP to create a weighted average for a particular

crop/state/active ingredient combination when NASS reports separate

estimates for “processed tomatoes” and “fresh tomatoes” or “tart cherries”

and “sweet cherries,” etc.

The use coefficients drawn from the NASS surveys were used in the 1997

NCFAP database by multiplication times the estimate of crop acreage

from the 1997 Census of Agriculture. With this method, estimates of total

 These reports are available on the worldwide web at usda.gov/nass/.
pounds applied are calculated. There is not an exact agreement between

the acreage estimates in the 1997 Census and those used in the NASS

Agricultural Chemical Usage reports. As a result, there is not an exact

agreement between NASS’s published estimates of pounds of active

ingredient used and NCFAP’s – even though both sets of estimates rely on

the same usage coefficients.

• Reports for individual states and selected crops funded by USDA’s Cooperative

State Research, Education and Extension Service (CSREES) and national

pesticide benefit assessments conducted by USDA’s National Agricultural

Pesticide Impact Assessment Program (NAPIAP) (1,646 records)

CSREES has funded university specialists to prepare pesticide use surveys

for many crops.4 These reports were prepared in a variety of ways. Some

are based on surveys of farmers; some are based on expert opinions from

extension service specialists. NCFAP’s 1997 pesticide use database

includes estimates from 46 of the CSREES funded reports.

Since 1995, USDA’s NAPIAP issued nine national assessment reports of

pesticides used, by state, in the production of particular crops (citrus,

tomatoes, alfalfa, strawberries, carrots, onions, asparagus, rice and

potatoes). The NAPIAP reports include estimates of the usage of

individual active ingredients for these crops on a state-by-state basis.

These estimates are based on expert opinions of university specialists.

• USDA Crop Profiles (1,256 records)

For the past several years, the USDA has funded university specialists to

develop documents known as “crop profiles,” that include descriptions of

CSREES.
pest problems and control alternatives for a specific crop and state.5

 Many

of the crop profiles include pesticide usage data that are based either on

growers’ surveys or expert opinion of extension specialists. For California

crop profiles, pesticide usage data are drawn from the CALDPR’s full use

reporting system (described below). NCFAP drew pesticide use estimates

from 135 crop profiles.

• State of California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) Annual Report

(1997) (1,312 records) The DPR records have been assigned reference code 444.

The State of California requires full reporting of agricultural uses of

pesticides. The California DPR compiles the individual use records into a

statewide summary of the use of individual active ingredients by crop.6

The published report includes estimates of pounds applied and acres

treated.

The published acres treated estimates represent cumulative acres treated,

meaning that if an acre of a crop is treated more than once with the same

active ingredient, it is counted as many times as it is treated. The

CALDPR has prepared an unpublished summary of the crop acreage

treated data including totals of “Base Acres Treated,” that counts an acre

treated with an active ingredient only once, even if it is treated multiple

times with the same active ingredient. The CALDPR also estimated the

total number of base acres of the crop in the state. By dividing the

estimate of the number of base acres treated by an active ingredient by the

number of base acres of the crop in the state, the DPR calculated estimates

of “Percent Base Acres Treated,” that is definitionally similar to NASS’s

parameter, “Area Applied, Percent.” By dividing DPR’s estimates of total

 The CALDPR annual summary reports are available on the worldwide web at www.cdpr.ca.gov.
pounds applied by the estimates of base acres treated, estimates of the

annual average application (lbs/AI/A/YR) are calculated.

NCFAP obtained an electronic version of the 1997 CALDPR statewide

summary report, that includes the estimates of base acres treated and

percent base acres treated.7 NCFAP integrated the DPR data into the 1997

national database by assigning NCFAP’s standard names for crops and

active ingredients in place of CALDPR’s. In some cases, NCFAP totaled

DPR records by combining separate records for various crop subgroups

(such as lemons, grapefruit, etc.) to conform with NCFAP’s crop

definition (i.e. citrus). NCFAP also totaled DPR’s separate estimates for

different salts of active ingredients (such as 2,4-D) into a single active

ingredient total.

NCFAP recomputed the estimates of percent base acres treated by

dividing the DPR estimates of number of base acres treated by the Census

of Agriculture’s crop acreage estimates. In some cases, there is

considerable discrepancy between the Census and the DPR statewide

acreage estimates.8 As a result, NCFAP’s estimates of percent acres

treated are not in exact agreement with the unpublished DPR estimates.

NCFAP recomputes the estimates of acres treated and pounds applied by

multiplying the Census acreage estimates times the estimates of percent

acres treated and annual application amounts (lbs/AI/A/YR). Generally,

there is close agreement between NCFAP’s and CALDPR’s estimates of

total pounds of active ingredient applied by crop. In some cases, NCFAP

has drawn pesticide use coefficients for California crops from NASS

surveys and from crop profiles.

 The database was provided by Larry Wilhoit of DPR.

 This discrepancy is discussed at length in several crop profiles from California, such as strawberries.
For methyl bromide, the statewide DPR summaries include several large

subtotals that are not disaggregated by crop, such as “uncultivated

agricultural areas” and “soil applications, preplant – outdoors.” An

examination of the detailed California usage file that contains the

individual application records revealed that much of the unspecified

methyl bromide usage is in three counties: Fresno, Madera and Tulare.

The agricultural commissioners in those three counties were contacted and

provided percentage estimates of the unspecified methyl bromide usage by

crop. These percentages were used to distribute the estimates of

unspecified methyl bromide usage in these counties to the individual crops

identified by the county commissioners.9 Usage records for methyl

bromide that were developed with this adjustment procedure are assigned

a reference code of 503.

• Survey of Extension Service Specialists (4,662 records)

Survey forms were sent to university extension service specialists asking

for profiles of active ingredient usage by crop for 1997. The survey forms

included the 1992 usage estimates. Survey forms were sent for crops and

states not included in the sources listed above (NASS, CSREES, Crop

Profiles, CALDPR).

The surveys were sent to specialists who were identified as having

participated in previous NCFAP surveys and NAPIAP assessments. In

addition, extension specialists were identified by discipline from the

published pest management handbooks issued by state university

extension services.

 

9

 This procedure is discussed in more detail in the report The Economic Impact of the Scheduled U.S.

Phaseout of Methyl Bromide available on NCFAP’s website: www.ncfap.org
277 extension service specialists responded to the survey request. They

are all listed individually in the reference list.

• Other Sources (821 records)

Several commodity organizations provided estimates of the use of

individual active ingredients by state: the Mint Industry Research Council

[344], the Cranberry Institute [336], the U.S. Hop Plant Protection

Committee [253], the Oregon Hop Commission [254], the Minnesota

Canola Council [347], and the Florida Fruit and Vegetable Association

[380]. In addition, several commodity groups’ publications include

pesticide use data that has been included in the 1997 database: the

Michigan Potato Commission [027] [514], the Mint Industry Research

Council [063] [064], the National Cotton Council [437], and Cotton Inc.

[460]. Two independent crop consultants [290] [314] and five pest

management specialists at food corporations [121] [186] [228] [373] [384]

profiled usage patterns. Usage profiles for sugarbeets in Montana, North

Dakota and Minnesota were drawn from an annual publication of the

North Dakota State University Extension Service [436]. Usage records for

Wisconsin were drawn from a report funded by the Wisconsin State

Legislature [054]. Two states with pesticide use reporting requirements

provided estimates for certain pesticides and crops for which statewide

aggregations had been tabulated: New Hampshire [445] and

Arizona [009]. One state provided estimates of use under Section 18

registrations [518]. Identification of acreage planted with herbicide

tolerant cotton varieties came from a USDA/AMS publication [519].

During the review procedure (outlined below), six individuals from

agricultural chemical manufacturers provided estimates of the usage of

individual active ingredients that are included in the 1997 database [378]

[379] [381] [493] [504] [506].
• Assignments (3,321 records)

In certain cases (91 records), it was determined that the pesticide usage

data for 1992 characterized the 1997 time period as well. In these cases

the same references that had been included in the 1992 database are

included as sources in the 1997 database: [475] [484] [492] [494] [495]

[496] [497] [505] [515].

In certain cases (43 records), usage profiles provided by the above sources

listed methyl bromide usage without listing a corresponding use amount

for chloropicrin. Since methyl bromide is always applied in combination

with chloropicrin, it was assumed that chloropicrin was used on the same

percentage of acres as methyl bromide. Chloropicrin records that are

based on this procedure are identified with a reference code of “900.”

In many cases (3,187 records), usage profiles were not available from the

above sources for a crop in certain states. In these instances, usage

estimates have been assigned by assuming that the state’s pesticide use

profile for a particular active ingredient/crop combination is identical to

that of a nearby state. Usage records that have been assigned based on the

profile for a nearby state have been assigned a reference code of “999.”
5.0 Review Procedures

A preliminary version of the 1997 usage database was sent out for review by contacts at

university extension services and at agricultural chemical companies. The state

university contacts are identified in Table 6. These individuals traditionally have been

identified as State Liaison Representatives (SLRs) to CSREES’s NAPIAP. As such their

responsibilities have included maintaining information on pesticide usage in their states.

Accordingly, they were asked to review the preliminary usage estimates for their states in

terms of accuracy and completeness. Several of these state contacts provided extensive

comments on the preliminary database; others did not respond to this request.

The industry contacts listed in Table 7 were sent the preliminary usage estimates for their

companies’ active ingredients. In some cases, no response was received regarding the

review requests. In other cases extensive comments were made regarding the accuracy

and completeness of the preliminary 1997 usage estimates. In six cases, the industry

contacts were willing to serve as sources for particular usage estimates for their products.

They are identified as references [378] [379] [381] [493] [504] and [506].

In those cases for which the industry or university contacts reported large discrepancies

between the preliminary 1997 usage estimates and industry or university data, an effort

was made to resolve the discrepancies. In some cases, the preliminary 1997 estimates

were revised by substitution of data sources. For example, a preliminary estimate may

have been based on the 1997 NASS Field Crop Survey, but, subsequently, was revised to

the 1996 Field Crop Survey if that helped to resolve discrepancies. In other cases, usage

estimates from crop profiles were substituted for NASS data that may have been utilized

initially in the preliminary database. In some cases, follow-up surveys were made with

extension service specialists to try to resolve discrepancies. In some cases, these

procedures were successful and permitted revision of the preliminary data which resulted

in estimates closer to those of industry or universities. However, in other cases, these
procedures were not successful in resolving such differences and the preliminary

estimates were not revised.

The listing of an individual or an organization in Tables 6 and 7 does not imply any

endorsement of the accuracy of the 1997 national pesticide use database. These names

are provided for informational purposes only: these are the individuals who were

contacted for the purpose of reviewing the preliminary 1997 data.
6.0 Results/Summaries

Tables 8, 9, 10 and 11 list the estimates of national usage in terms of pounds for

individual active ingredients according to pesticide type (fungicides, herbicides,

insecticides and other). These national estimates are sums of the individual records by

state and crop. These tables include the national sums by active ingredient for both 1992

and 1997. It should be noted that the insecticide Bt is not reported in terms of pounds of

active ingredient, due to its nature. Therefore, its totals are listed as blanks in Table 10.

Table 12 lists the top 10 active ingredients in each pesticide category in terms of pounds

of national usage in 1997.

Table 13 compares NCFAP’s 1997 national usage totals with EPA’s estimates of the

national usage of the 25 largest volume “conventional” pesticide active ingredients used

in agriculture. As can be seen, the NCFAP totals are within EPA’s range for 19 of the

active ingredients. NCFAP’s 1997 estimates are lower than EPA’s usage range for 1

active ingredient while being higher than EPA’s usage range for 5 active ingredients.

It should be noted that since EPA’s ranking excludes certain pesticides (such as sulfuric

acid, oil and sulfur), there is a discrepancy between EPA’s listing of the top 25 largest

volume pesticides used in agriculture and NCFAP’s. The three active ingredients noted

above (sulfuric acid, oil and sulfur) are all included in NCFAP’s highest volume 10

active ingredients listing (Table 12).

In the aggregate, there is rough agreement between the NCFAP national pesticide use

estimates for agricultural uses and estimates made by USEPA’s Office of Pesticide

Programs. Table 14 compares NCFAP’s and USEPA’s aggregate usage estimates for

1992 and 1997 by agricultural use category. The NCFAP totals for insecticides,

fungicides and other pesticides have been adjusted so that they are definitionally the same

as EPA’s: certain active ingredients are included in a category called “other chemicals”.

(See the note for Table 14.)
Eighty-seven crops are profiled for one or more of the 48 coterminous states. Table 15

lists the 87 crops and shows the total national usage amount for each crop. Table 16 lists

the 48 States and shows the total usage for each state. Table 17 lists the 10 crops and

states that rank the highest in terms of total volume of pesticide active ingredients applied

in 1997.
7.0 Caveats/Disclaimers

The NCFAP national pesticide use database is a compilation of records from a wide

variety of sources. There is no way to determine the accuracy of any of the estimates in

the database. Some of the estimates are based on surveys of farmers, others are expert

opinions from knowledgeable extension service specialists. Because of the absence of

data for many states and crops, many records have been assigned based on the data from

a nearby state. It is unclear as to how accurate this procedure is. No claims of statistical

accuracy are made with regard to the NCFAP national pesticide use database.

The NCFAP database is limited to cropland uses of pesticides only. Seed treatments,

greenhouse uses, ornamental uses, livestock uses, rodenticides, postharvest uses and

animal repellants are not included.

Although references made to the years 1992 and 1997 as the benchmark years for the

database, the data records are drawn from the years 1990-1993 and 1994-1998. The

NCFAP databases are more accurately described as circa 1992 and circa 1997.

Note: The active ingredient Bt is not estimated in terms of pounds of use. The only

usage parameter included for Bt is acres treated.
8.0 1992 Database Adjustments

In assembling the 1997 estimates and comparing them to the 1992 estimates, the need to

adjust several of the 1992 records became necessary. The rate of azinphos-methyl on

apples in Washington had been included, inadvertently, in the 1992 database as “2.02.”

Upon review of the original data source, the estimate was converted to “3.02.” In the

1997 database, in all instances, when a crop is treated with methyl bromide a companion

estimate for chloropicrin has been made. (See discussion above in Section 4.0.) This

procedure was not used for the 1992 database. Consequently, there are several instances

in the original 1992 database where methyl bromide’s use is included without a

corresponding estimate for chloropicrin. To remedy this oversight, 23 records for

chloropicrin have been added to the 1992 database so that in every instance where methyl

bromide is used, a companion chloropicrin estimate exists. In addition, three chloropicrin

estimates originally made in the 1992 database have been revised because of a significant

discrepancy between the estimates for percent crop treated between chloropicrin and

methyl bromide. In addition, to being used wherever methyl bromide is used, it also is

assumed that the same percentage of acres would be treated with both methyl bromide

and chloropicrin. In these three instances, chloropicrin had been estimated to have been

used on significantly fewer acres than had methyl bromide. In these three instances, as in

the 23 new records for chloropicrin, the estimate of percent acreage treated for

chloropicrin is assumed to be the same as for methyl bromide. An additional reference

code of “900” has been added to the 1992 database to identify those instances in which

chloropicrin usage has been assumed to have been applied in combination with

previously identified use of methyl bromide.

With these exceptions, for chloropicrin and azinphos-methyl, there is exact agreement

between the usage estimates for 1992 in this report and those previously released. Since

the 1992 database is included in its entirety on the NCFAP website, the list of references

used in the 1992 database is included in this report as Section 11.0.

ingredient and year, a national summary of use is displayed. This national summary

adds up the estimates of acres treated and pounds used from the individual database

records to national totals. The computer routine accesses a file that contains

estimates of the national acreage planted for each crop. These estimates are

displayed in this report as “NCFAP Acres” in Table 2. The routine divides the

national acreage of a crop treated with an active ingredient by the national estimate

of acres planted to compute an estimate of “% Acres Treated” that represents the

percent of the nation’s acres of the crop treated with the active ingredient. The

routine also adds up the estimates of pounds of active ingredient applied to a national

total by crop. By dividing the estimate of pounds of active ingredient applied by

crop by the estimate of acres treated, the routine computes a value for the average

annual national rate of application (Lbs AI/A) for the active ingredient on the crop.

These estimates are displayed in this report in two summary tables for each activie

ingredient: Table 18A and Table 18B, the national summaries for 1992 and 1997,

respectively.

(3) View Reports for Active Ingredients by Crop and State. These reports format the

individual data records for either 1992 or 1997. The selection can be made by either

active ingredient, crop or state. Thus, all of the records can be previewed for any

individual active ingredient. Likewise, all of the records can be previewed for a

particular crop or state. The routine allows the user to apply filters by state, crop or

active ingredient. However, there is no guarantee that a search will produce any
records that meet the specified combination. It is advised to use the option “All

pesticides” or “All crops” or “All states” initially in order to see which states or

crops or active ingredients are included for the area of interest. These tables are

included as Tables 1A and 1B in this report, including records from 1992 and 1997,

respectively.

Each record in the database is specific by active ingredient, crop and state. The following

description applies to the individual fields displayed on each record:

(a) Pesticide: 235 Unique Active Ingredient Names

There are 200 active ingredients included in the 1992 database and 220 in the

1997. One hundred eighty-five ingredients are included for both years. Fifteen

active ingredients that were included in the 1992 file are not included in the 1997

file. Thirty-five new active ingredients have been added to the 1997 file.

(b) Crop: 87 Unique Crop Names

The crop names are identical for the 1992 and 1997 databases.

(c) State: 48 State Names

(d) Acres Planted: From the Census of Agriculture (either 1992 or 1997)

(e) % Acres Treated: The percentage of the crop in the state treated with the active

ingredient on an annual basis

(f) LBS AI/Acre: The amount of the active ingredient used on a treated acre on an

annual basis

(g) Acres Treated: Acres Planted x % Acres Treated x 0.01

(h) LBS AI Applied: Acres Treated x LBS AI/A

(i) REF: The Reference Code

The reference code identifies the source of the usage parameters. These “REF’s”

are identified in Sections 10.0 and 11.0 of this report for 1997 and 1992,

respectively.

Note: The active ingredient Bt is not estimated in terms of pounds of use. The only

usage parameter included for Bt is acres treated.
(4) Download Records from the Database

The user has the option of downloading the entire database or selected records from the

database. The entire database may be downloaded in either Microsoft Excel, Microsoft

Access or common delimited text (.csv) format. Selected records may be downloaded in

comma delimited text (.csv) format only.

The entire file contains 20886 records. Each record contains fields for data for 1992 and

1997. There are records for crop uses and active ingredients that are included for 1992

and for which usage was not tabulated for 1997. This is the result of three factors:

(1) the active ingredient used was canceled subsequent to 1992; (2) the state/crop

combination is no longer tracked by NCFAP (See Table 3 for a list of state/crop

combinations not included in the 1997 database.); and (3) the active ingredient is not

reported as having been used on the crop in the state in 1997. Likewise there are records

for which the 1997 parameters are filled in while the 1992 fields are blank. These

situations arise because of three factors: (1) the active ingredient was newly introduced

subsequent to 1992; (2) NCFAP added the state/crop combination to its database

subsequent to the 1992 compilation (See Table 4 to identify state/crop combinations that

were added to the 1997 database.); and (3) the active ingredient was not reported as being

used on the crop in the state in 1992 but was reported as being used in 1997.

The format of the downloaded records is as follows:

a. Pesticide Name: 235 unique active ingredient names

b. Type: Each active ingredient is classified into one of four categories:

Herbicides

Insecticides

Fungicides

Other Pesticides

c. Crop: 87 Unique Crop Names
