USD A Agent Calls
For Pesticide Usi
1 " V > , . - -' . e ' . I
Pdsticides pre absolutely essent
ial today to maintain: quantity and
quality of food and fiber and to
protect public health, Si A. Hall,
a U. S. Department of Agriculture
official, said here Monday.
Hall of Beltsville, Md., is chief
of the. Pesticide Chemicals Re
search Branch of the USDA’s En
tomology Research Division.
Speaking at the Insect and Plant
Disease Control Conference here,
he said pesticides will be needed
for years to come despite the prob
lems they cause.
Two major problems are insect
resistance and insecticide residue^
on food and feed he said. Shifting
to other types of pesticides will
answer some of the puzzles in both
these categories, as well as prob
lems involving wildlife losses.
“Biological control methods in
general cannot take the place of
pesticides tomorrow or next year
— perhaps not for decades,” he
said. “But there will surely and.
slowly be real gains in these other
approaches in proportion to work
that is done in exploring them.”
OUTSTANDING examples of
biological control programs are
underway in Florida and Texas.
Male Screwworm flies are steriliz
ed through nuclear radiation and
then released over wide areas. The
sterile males mate with non
female flies,- but no young i
produced.
Hall praised the trend tow
eradication of certain import
pests rather than year-to-year to
trol.
“We thus find ourselves io
situation where great progress
been made, where we are straj
ling to consolidate this prod
and to clean up problems that to
come with it. We are onthei#
with new types of research keyi
to basic studies in biology 0
chemistry. If we were not on I
move, our progress . would suit
be cancelled out by the dynaii
forces of nature,” he said.
Another speaker on the ffi
day’s program was Norman Fi
ter, chief chemist for the
and Drug Administration at Di
las, who said Texas farmers i
getting and using pesticide aivi
“THEY MUST be doing the)
right because the FDA did noth
it necessary to seize any fa®
products this season,” he said.
He explained the FDA’s incrctf
ed staff and facilities will allf
it to inspect three times the 4
ume of farm products for inse^i
cide residues next year coni]
to 1962. More growing crops»
be sampled.
