The regulators of growth and development insects for ecologically safe protection of orchard crops in the forest -steppe of Ukraine

Abstract

It is confirmed that the perspective through the ecologizing of chemical protection of orchard crops from pests is the use of selective preparations – regulators of growth and development of insects. Ecotoxicological assessment criteria defined for investigated pesticides: polarity, detoxication rate constant (k), the periods of half-lives (T₅₀) and full decay (T₉₅), degree of hazard.
