Sec. 158.55  Agricultural vs. non-agricultural pesticides.

    Section 25(a)(1) of FIFRA instructs the Administrator to ``take into 
account the difference in concept and usage between various classes of 
pesticides and differences in environmental risk and the appropriate 
data

[[Page 94]]

for evaluating such risk between agricultural and non-agricultural 
pesticides.'' This part distinguishes the various classes of pesticide 
use (e.g., crop vs. non-crop) and the corresponding data necessary to 
support registration under FIFRA. This information is present in each 
data requirement table. In addition, the Use Pattern Index (appendix A) 
is a comprehensive list of pesticide use patterns, cross-referenced to 
the general use patterns appearing in the tables; the index will further 
assist the reader in distinguishing agricultural versus non-agricultural 
uses of pesticides.
