    North Carolina State University, Department of Crop & Soil Sciences, Raleigh, NC, U.S.A.
    Pesticide residues found on cured tobacco remain a large concern to the allied tobacco industry. To better quantify cured leaf residues, three active ingredients (fluopicolide, indoxacarb, and oxathiapiprolin) were applied to flue-cured tobacco grown...

    North Carolina State University, Department of Crop Science, Raleigh, NC, U.S.A.
    In 2011, conveyors were introduced to the US market for use in chemical sucker control programs. Due to focused application and coarse droplet size, it was initially thought that conveyors might assist in reducing maleic hydrazide (MH) residues,...
