Maize insecticides

In the developed world in markets such as small grain cereals, soybean, maize and rice, the value of the herbicide market is much larger than either insecticides or fungicides (Figure 1.1). This is because the econo-... 

The major crops for agrochemical use are cotton, rice, maize, vegetables and top fruit for insecticides small grain cereals, rice, vines and top fruit for fungicides, and maize, soybeans, small grain cereals, rice, industrial weed control, plantations and orchards for herbicides. Other crops that may be of interest include sugar beet, oil-seed rape, potatoes and citrus dependent upon your company s presence in these crops. 

The OPP malathion is widely used because of its low persistence in the environment and its high insecticide activity. Pure malathion has moderate toxicity, but crude malathion and its formulations contain impurities, which are far more toxic to mammals. These impurities not only are formed during commercial production but can also develop in the grains during storage. The most toxic of these products is the oxidation product malaoxon. An isocratic HPLC method indicated the degradation of malathion in stored wheat (55) and the presence of malathion and malaoxon in maize and bean samples (56). Isomalation and malation monocarboxylic acid metabolites were also detected.
