Features: Pesticides are important agricultural production materials. Using pesticides to control plant diseases, insects, weeds, and rodent pests is one of the key means to promote agricultural production development. In recent years, new pesticide varieties have continuously emerged, new technologies for pesticide use have been constantly improved, and the use of pesticides in agricultural and forestry production has been increasing. The scientific and rational use of pesticides is not only related to the stable development of agricultural production but also to the health of the broad masses of the people and the natural environment on which human beings depend for survival. To help farmers better understand pesticide knowledge and master usage techniques, and to ensure the safety, stability, and efficiency of agricultural production, we have compiled the book "Safe Use of Pesticides." Pesticides have the function of controlling plant diseases, insects, weeds, and rodent pests, but at the same time, they are toxic and harmful substances, and their negative effects are widespread in all aspects of pesticide production, transportation, storage, purchase and sale, and use. In addition to introducing basic pesticide knowledge, the control targets and usage methods of common pesticides, this book also covers knowledge related to pesticide poisoning, phytotoxicity, storage, transportation, and quality identification. The text is easy to understand, and the content is as closely related as possible to the actual situation of controlling plant diseases, insects, weeds, and rodent pests, making it highly practical.
