| Abstract | Herbicides became the dominant pesticide type applied in the United States, with the bulk applied to corn, cotton, soybeans, and wheat. Major factors affecting use trends since 1980 are crop acreage, the use of newer compounds applied at lower per-acre rates, and the adoption of genetically-engineered crops. |
