The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

Evaluation of Sprays in the Management of Black Sigatoka in Banana Crop

Scholars Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences, 2022
The main phytosanitary problem of commercial bananas is black Sigatoka, caused by the fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis Morelet. This pathogen causes loss of leaf area, loss of exportable quality and low crop yields. The objective of the research was to evaluate four systemic fungicides applied in mixtures in different combinations and to determine ...
