Abstract
Agricultural chemicals have become increasingly
important in New Zealand farming systems over the past
two decades. This is evidenced by the increasing
physical inputs of agricultural chemicals to farms over
this period.
This report presents results of a mail survey of
Canterbury and Southland farmers regarding pests and
pest control.
