This chapter deals with the chemicals used in agriculture mainly to protect, preserve, and improve crop yields. The term “agrochemical” is used broadly. Much agrochemical research and some advanced development is directed toward the introduction of genes that may provide disease, insect, or viral resistance into plants or other organisms.
