Abstract:To protect the environment, pesticides often require
mitigation
measures to reduce losses via runoff, erosion, spray drift, and other
routes of transport. Although many mitigation measures are generally
effective at reducing pesticide losses from treated areas, it is often
unknown whether they provide the desired protection level for the
environment including threatened and endangered (“listed”)
species. In this paper, we use the Agricultural Policy/Environmental
eXtender model (APEX) to quantify reductions in… Show more
