Nematicidal Effects of Carbofuran and GC-MS Analysis of its Residue in Pineapple Fruits

~ 75b26a39d163c91b6662a9eb44cd040f.200x200

Concerns over the safety of food items from fields treated with nematicides had risen in recent times. In this study, two field experiments arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design were conducted to assess the efficacy of poultry manure and carbofuran in suppressing nematode population and determine the residual presence of the nematicide in pineapple fruits. Three poultry manure rates...
