### Update Alert

Corrections on pages 71 and 72. Data and stubs we re misaligned on Winter Wheat tables for Oregon and South Dakota.



### Overview

The agricultural chemical use estimates in this report refer to on-farm use of commercial fertilizers and pesticides on targeted field crops for the 2006 crop year. Field crops include rice, organic soybeans, soybeans, durum wheat, other spring wh eat, and winter wheat. Farm operators were enumerated late in the growing season after the farm operator had indicated that planned applications were completed. The chemical use data were not summarized for geographical areas other than by those States published in this report.

The data were compiled from 2 surveys, the Ag ricultural Resources Mana gement Survey (ARMS) and Conservation Effects Assessmen t Project (CEAP). Data colle ction occurred primarily during the months of September to December of 2006. An ex ample of the survey instrument used in data collection is included in the back of this publication.

The table below shows the number of States incl uded in the survey, the number of summarized reports from the States, and the percent of the Program States = acres planted to that commodity compared with the U.S. total. Producers of soyb eans, durum wheat, other spring wheat, and winter wheat were last surveyed using both ARMS and CEAP surveys in 2004. Rice producers were last surveyed in 2000.

### Distribution Tables – Highlights

The following distribution tables provide details about the distribution of agricultural chemical active ingredients commonly applied to the selected field. Chemical distribution rates are listed by active ingredient for the Percent of Acres Treated, Number of A pplications, Rate per Application, and Rate per Crop year. In order for an active ingr edient to be published in these tables, at least 30 farm operators reported an application of the ac tive ingredient on the specified crop. The data in each table are summarized for a specific group of States, called Program States. The Program States designation is specific for each crop a nd provided in tables within the publication (See page 3).

These distribution tables show the 10 th 

### percentile, median, 90 th 

### percentile, mean, and coefficient of variation (cv) of the reported rates. The 10 th 

### percentile is the value below which 10 percent of all application rates fall. Thus, only 10 percent of operators reported an application rate for the active ingredient on the specified crop that was lower than the 10 th 

### percentile value. Likewise, the 90 th 

### percentile is a value for which 90 percent of all app lications were at rates lower than this value. The median is the midpoint of the distribution with half of the reported app lication rates higher and half lower than the median value. The mean is the weighted average calculated by summing the application rate multiplied by the acres applied and then dividing by the acres applied.

The cv is a relative measure of the variability, expressed as a percentage of the estimate. For a specific commodity, the States have different agricultural practices which can lead to a wide range of pesticide usage rates. These ranges can lead to higher cv rates for different active ingredients. Some active ingredients are only applied in one manner resulting in smaller cv = s, while other active ingredients have more varied agricultural uses which will have larger cv = s. Please see the Survey and Estimation Procedures and Reliability sections for more information.

The Number of Applications, Rate per Application, and Rate per Crop Year distribution tables are calculated using data only from reports where the fa rm operator applied the active ingredient. Data presented in the Percent of Acre s Treated table account for all ope rations in the sample producing the target commodity, whether or not th e listed active ingredient was applied.Agricultural Chemical Usage 2006 Field Crops Summary Agricultural Statistics Board May 2007 76 NASS, USDA Rice: Percent of Acres Treated Distribution, Program States, 2006 1

### Integrated Pest Manageme nt Practices - Highlights

Rice: No-till or minimum till practices were incorpor ated on 38 percent of the rice acreage in the prevention of pests, while 57 percent of the plante d acreage was rotated with some other crop(s) to avoid pests. Scouting for weeds was used on 97 percent of the farms growing rice and on 98 percent of the rice acres.

Soybeans: To prevent pests, 75 percent of the soybean acreage was under no-till or minimum till production practice. In addition, 86 percent of the soyb ean acreage had been rotated with some other crop(s) to control pests. Ninety-one per cent of the soybean acreage was scouted for weeds, and the scouting was performed by the operator, partner, or family member on 85 percent of the farms.

Durum wheat: To aid in the prevention of pests, 85 percent of the farms utilized no-till or minimum till practices. Additionally, 48 percent of the farms cleaned implements after field work to prevent the spread pests. Of the durum whea t acres in the two surveyed States, 38 percent was planted to a crop variety resistant to pests. Sc outing for weeds, insects, and diseases took place on 97, 68, and 68 percent, respectively, of the durum wheat acres.

Other spring wheat: No-till or minimum till practices were utilized on 69 percent of the other spring wheat farms to aid in the prevention of pe sts. In addition, 50 percent of the other spring wheat acres were planted to a crop variety resistan t to pests. Scouting for weeds, insects, and diseases took place on 96, 68, and 74 percent, resp ectively, of the other spring wheat acres.

Winter wheat: To aid in the prevention of pests, 54 percent of the winter wheat farms utilized no-till or minimum till practices. In addition, 41 percent winter wheat acres were planted to a crop variety resistant to pests. Scouting for weeds, insects, and diseases took place on 80, 64, and 62 percent, respectively, of the winter wheat acres.

Prior to the 2006 surveys producers of soybeans, durum wheat, other spring wheat, and winter wheat were last asked about their pest manageme nt practices in 2004. Rice producers were last surveyed in 2000.Agricultural Chemical Usage 2006 Field Crops Summary Agricultural Statistics Board May 2007 94 NASS, USDA Pest Management Practices Percent of Farms Utilizing Practice Rice, 2006

### Survey and Estimation Procedures

Survey Procedures: Data for rice, soybeans, organic so ybeans, durum wheat, other spring wheat, and winter wheat were collected on two 2006 su rveys, the Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) and the Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP).

Data collection for the ARMS and CEAP survey s occurred during the months of September through December 2006 and only those CEAP sample s that matched the ARMS crops and states were included. Data collection and sampling procedures were similar for both the ARMS and CEAP surveys. ARMS screening samples were drawn from the NASS List Sampling Frame. This extensive sampling frame covers all types of farm s and accounts for approximately 90 percent of all land in farms in the United States. All farms on the list had a possibility of being selected for the screening sample. Farms thought to have the crops of interest we re more likely to be in the screening sample. Sampled farms were screened to determine if they grew the target crops in 2006. From this subpopulation of operati ons identified as producing a crop of interest, a subsample of farms was selected in such a way as to insure th at each identified producer had an opportunity to be selected. In general, larger farms were more likely to be selected than smaller farms. Once a farm producing rice, soybeans, organic soybeans, durum wheat, other spring wheat , or winter wheat was selected, one field was randomly chosen from all the fields on the farm. The operator of the sampled field was personally interviewed to obtai n information on chemical applications made to the selected field. The CEAP was a nationwide, area-based sample surv ey based on the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)National Resources Inve ntory (NRI) points. CEAP samples which reported a commodity of interest which matched the ARMS commodities were combined with the ARMS data for use in this publication.

Estimation Procedures: The chemical application data, repo rted by product name or trade name, are reviewed within each State and across States for reasonableness and consistency. This review compares reported data with manufacturers = recommendations and with data from other farm operators using the same product. Following this review, product information is converted to an active ingredient level. The chemical usage estimates in this publication consist of survey estimates of those active ingredients. For this publicati on, detailed data within a table may not multiply across or add down due to independent rounding of the published values.

Estimates of the total amount of active ingred ient applied are base d on the acreage estimates published in the annual NASS report A Crop Production - 2006 Summary @ [Cr Pr 2-1 (07)] for rice, soybeans, durum wheat, other spring wheat, and winter wheat. Please note that the estimates for total amount of an active ingredient applied will not be revised even if there are subsequent revisions to acreage for a given crop.

### Reliability

The surveys were designed so that the estimates are statistically representative of chemical use on the targeted crops in the Program States. The re liability of these survey results is affected by sampling variability and non-sampling errors.

Since all operations producing the crops of interest are not included in the sample, survey estimates are subject to sampling variability. The sampling variability expressed as a percent of the estimate is called the coefficient of variation (cv). Sampling variability of the estimates differed considerably by chemical and crop. Variability fo r estimates of percent of acres trea ted will be higher than the variability for estimates of applicati on rates. This is because application rates have a narrower range of responses, which are recommende d by the manufacturer of the product, and are generally followed. In general, the more often the chemical was applied, the smaller the sampling variability. For example, estimates of a commonl y used active ingredient such as Glyphosate isopropylamine salt will exhibit less variability than a rarely used chemical. A commonly used active ingredient is defined as an active ingredient used on at least 40 percent of the acres planted for a crop at the Program State level. For these active ingredients, cv = s range from 1 percent to 10 percent at the Program State le vel and 1 percent to 52 percent at the individual state level. Active ingredients that are less frequently used have cv = s that range from 2 percent to 70 percent.

Non-sampling errors can occur in complete censuses as well as sample surveys. They are caused by the inability to obtain correct information from each person surveyed, differences in interpreting questions or definitions, and mistake s in coding or processing the da ta. Special efforts are taken at each step of the survey to minimize non-sampling errors.Agricultural Chemical Usage 2006 Field Crops Summary Agricultural Statistics Board May 2007 112 NASS, USDA 

## Terms and Definitions

Active ingredient: The specific chemical which kills or controls the target pest(s). Usage data are reported by pesticide pro duct and are converted to an amount of active ingredient. A single method of conversion has been chosen for active ingredient s having more than one way of being converted. For example in this report, copper compounds are ex pressed in their metallic copper equivalent, and others such as 2,4-D and glyphosate are ex pressed in their salt and acid equivalent.

Application Rates: Refer to the average number of pounds of a fertilizer primary nutrient or pesticide active ingredient applied to an acre of la nd. Rate per application is the average number of pounds applied per acre in one a pplication. Rate per crop year is the average number of pounds applied per acre counting multiple applications. Number of applications is the average number of times a treated acre received a specific primary nutrient or active ingredient.

Area applied: Represents the percentage of crop acres receiving one or more applications of a specific primary nutrient or active ingredient.

Avoidance: May be practiced when pest populations exis t in a field or site but the impact of the pest on the crop can be avoided through some cultu ral practice. Examples of avoidance tactics include crop rotation such that the crop of choice is not a host for the pest, choosing cultivars with genetic resistance to pests, using trap crops, choos ing cultivars with maturity dates that may allow harvest before pest populations develop, fertilization pr ograms to promote rapid crop development, and simply not planting certain areas of fields where pest populations are likely to cause crop failure. Some tactics for prevention a nd avoidance strategies may overlap.

The following pest management questions were categorized as avoidance practices:

Were planting or harvesting dates adjusted for this field to manage pests?

Were crops rotated in this field during the pa st 3 years for the purpose of managing pests?

Were planting locations planned to avoid infestation of pests?

Was a trap crop grown to help manage insects in this field?

Was a seed variety chosen to plant in this field because it had resistance to a specific pest?

Beneficial Insects: Insects collected and introduced into locations because of their value in biologic control as prey on harmful insects and parasites.

Chemigation: Application of an agricultural chemical by injecting it into irrigation water.

Common name: An officially recognized name for an active ingredient. This report shows active ingredient by common name.

Crop year: Refers to the period immediately following harvest of the previous crop through harvest of the current crop.

### Cultivar: A horticulturally or agriculturally derived variety of a plant, as distinguished from a natural variety.

Farm: Any establishment from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were sold or would normally be sold during the year. Government payments are included in sales. Places with all acreage enrolled in set aside or other governme nt programs are considered to be a farm.

Fertilizer: Refers to applications of the primary nutrients; nitrogen, phosphate, and potash.

Fungi: A lower form of parasitic plant life which often reduces crop production and/or lowers the grade quality of its host.

Land in Farms: All land operated as part of a farming operation during the year. It includes crop and livestock acreage, wasteland, woodland, past ure, land in summer fallo w, idle cropland, and land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program and other set-as ide, conservation, or commodity acreage programs. It excludes public, industrial, and grazing association land, and nonagricultural land. It also excludes all la nd operated by establishments not qualifying as farms.

Mechanism of Action (MOA ): The method/biological pathway th e pesticide uses to kill the pest.

Monitoring: Includes proper identification of pests th rough systematic samp ling or counting or other forms of scouting. Also, weather monitoring to predict levels of pest populations or to determine the most effective time to make pesticid e applications, and soil testing where appropriate.

The following pest management practices questio ns were categorized as monitoring practices:

In 2006, how was this field primarily scouted for insects, weeds, diseas es and/or beneficial organisms? (By conducting general observa tions while performing routine tasks? By deliberately going to the field specifically for scouting activities? This field was not scouted?)

Was an established scouting process used (sys tematic sampling, recording counts, etc.) or were insect traps used in this field?

Was scouting for pests done in this fiel d due to a pest advisory warning?

Was scouting for pests done in this fiel d due to a pest development model?

Was this field scouted for weeds? (If so, Who did the majority of the scouting? Operator, partner or family member, OR An employee, OR Farm supply or ch emical dealer, OR Independent crop consultant or commercial scout?)

Was this field scouted for insects and mites? (If so, Who did the majority of the scouting? Operator, partner or family member, OR An em ployee, OR Farm supply or chemical dealer, OR Independent crop consulta nt or commercial scout?)

Was this field scouted for diseas es? (If so, Who did the majority of the scouting? Operator, partner or family member, OR An employee, OR Farm supply or ch emical dealer, OR Independent crop consultant or commercial scout?)Agricultural Chemical Usage 2006 Field Crops Summary Agricultural Statistics Board May 2007 114 NASS, USDA 

### Were written or electronic records kept for this field to track the activity or numbers of weeds, insects or diseases?

Was field mapping data used for making w eed management decisions on this field?

Were the services of a diagnostic laboratory used for pest identification or soil or plant tissue pest analysis for this field?

Was weather data used to assist in determinin g either the need or when to make pesticide applications?

Were floral lures, attractants, repellants, pheromone traps or ot her biological pest controls used on this field?

Nematodes: Microscopic, worm-shaped parasitic animals. Damage to many crops can be severe.

Pesticides : As defined by the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), pesticides include any substance or mixture of substances inte nded for preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating any pest, and any substance or mixture of substances intended for use as a plant regulator, defoliant, or desiccant. The four classes of pesticides pres ented in this report and the pests targeted are: herbicides - weeds, insec ticides - insects, fungicides - fungi, and other chemicals - other forms of life. Miticides and nematicides are included as insecticides while soil fumigants, growth regulators, defoliants, and desiccants are included as other chemicals.

Pheromone: A chemical substance produced by an in sect which serves as a stimulus to other individuals of the same species for one or more behavioral responses.

Prevention: The practice of keeping a pest population fro m infesting a crop or field. It includes such tactics as using pest-free seeds or transplants, alternative tillage approaches such as no-till or strip-till systems, choosing cultivar s with genetic resistance to in sects or disease, irrigation scheduling to avoid situations conducive to disease development, cleaning tillage and harvesting equipment between fields or operations, using fiel d sanitation procedures, and eliminating alternate hosts or sites for insect pests and disease organisms.

The following pest management questions were categorized as prevention practices:

Were field edges, lanes, ditches, roadwa ys or fence lines chopped, mowed, plowed, or burned to manage pests for this field?

Were crop residues plowed down or remove d in this field to manage pests?

Were equipment and implements cleaned after completing field work in this field to reduce the spread of pests?

Were water management practices such as i rrigation scheduling, controlled drainage, or treatment of retention water used on this field to manage pests?

Was this field cultivated for weed control during the growing season?

### Was no-till or minimum till used to manage pests in this field?

Suppression: Tactics include cultural practices such as narrow row spacings or optimized in-row plant populations, using cover crops or mulches, or using crops with allelopathic potential in the rotation. Physical suppression tactics may include cultivation or mowing for weed control, baited or pheromone traps for certain insects, and temper ature management or excl usion devices for insect and disease management. Biological pesticides and controls, including mating disruption for insects, can be considered as alternatives to c onventional pesticides. Dete rmining pest thresholds and alternating pes ticide active ingredients to avoid re sistance buildup are suppression methods which minimize pesticide use.

The following questions were categorized as suppression practices:

Was scouting data compared to published inform ation on infestation thre sholds to determine when to take measures to manage pests in this field?

Were any biological pesticides such as Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis), insect growth regulators (Courier, Intrepid, etc.) neem or other natura l/biological based product s sprayed or applied to manage pests in this field?

Were any beneficial organisms (ins ects, nematodes, fungi) applied or released in this field to manage pests?

Were ground covers, mulches, or other physical barriers maintained for this field to manage pest problems?

Was row spacing or plant density adjust ed in this field to manage pests?

Were pesticides with different mechanisms of action rotated or tank mixed for the primary purpose of keeping pests from beco ming resistant to pesticides?

Trade name: A trademark name given to a specific formulation of a pesticide product. A formulation contains a specific concentration of the active ingredient, carrier materials, and other ingredients such as emulsifiers and wetting agents.Agricultural Chemical Usage 2006 Field Crops Summary Agricultural Statistics Board May 2007 116 NASS, USDA
