4 | ELE-SSAC-364 Part I (Dr. V.P.Bhalerao) Lesson No. 1 Introduction to agrochemicals, their type and role in agriculture Agrochemicals : The chemicals used in agriculture to maintain or to increase the crop production. Types of pesticides and their role in Agriculture : 1) Acaricides - Control of ticks and mites e.g. Sulphur and lime sulphur. 2) Algicides - Control of algae and other aquatic vegetation e.g. Copper sulphate. 3) Antiseptics - Non metal from microorganisms e.g. Phenol, mercuric chlorosis. 4) Arboricides - Undesirable arborell (vegetative part) and bushy vegetation e.g. Sulphuric acid, copper sulphate. 5) Bactericides - Control of bacteria and bacterial diseases e.g. Penicillin, streptomycin. 6) Fungicides - Plant diseases caused by various fungi e.g. Bordeux mixture, thiram. 7) Herbicides - Control of weeds e.g. 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T, diurea. 8) Insecticides - Control of harmful insects e.g. Endosulphan, carboryl. 9) Molluscides - Soft bodies insects like snails and slug. e.g. Metal dehyde. 10) Nematicides - Control of nematodes e.g. Methyl bromide and other fumigants. 11) Rodenticides - Control of rodents e.g. Zinc phosphate, vartarin. Fertilizers in Agriculture : Nitrogenous fertilizers Phosphatic fertilizers Potassic fertilizers Complex fertilizers Mixed fertilizers Micronutrient fertilizers Customized fertilizers
