Abstract

If not handled carefully, pesticides (herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, rodentcides) can contaminate groundwater supplies. Chronic health problems for people and animals can come from repeated exposure to even trace amounts of pesticides. This worksheet lists details of pesticide storage, mixing and loading, and container rinsing and disposal that will help farmers rate their risk of contaminating groundwater. 8 pages.
