2. PESTICIDES

Pesticides are substances that are meant to control pests, including weeds. The term pesticide
includes all of the following: herbicide, insecticides (which may include insect growth
regulators),termiticides,nematicide,molluscicide, piscicide, avicide, rodenticide, bactericide, i
nsect repellent, animal repellent, antimicrobial, and fungicide. The most common of these are
herbicides which account for approximately 80% of all pesticide use. Most pesticides are
intended to serve as plant protection products (also known as crop protection products),
which in general, protect plants from weeds, fungi, or insects. Target pests can include
insects, plant pathogens,weeds, molluscs, birds, mammals, fish, nematodes (roundworms),
and microbes that destroy property, cause nuisance, or spread disease, or are disease vectors.
Along with these benefits, pesticides also have drawbacks, such as potential toxicity to
humans and other species.

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has defined pesticide as:

“Any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, or

controlling any pest, including vectors of human or animal disease, unwanted species
of plants or animals, causing harm during or otherwise interfering with the
production, processing, storage, transport, or marketing of food, agricultural
commodities, wood and wood products or animal feedstuffs, or substances that may
be administered to animals for the control of insects, arachnids, or other pests in or on
their bodies. The term includes substances intended for use as a plant growth
regulator, defoliant, desiccant, or agent for thinning fruit or preventing the premature
fall of fruit. Also used as substances applied to crops either before or after harvest to
protect the commodity from deterioration during storage and transport”.
Pesticides can be classified on the basis of target organism
(herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides, and pediculicides),chemical structure (e.g.,
organic, inorganic, synthetic, or biological ,although the distinction can sometimes blur), and

18
physical state. Bio-pesticides includes microbial pesticides and biochemical pesticides. Plant-
derived pesticides, or "botanicals", have been developing quickly.

2.1 Advantages of pesticides:

 Control of pests: They help in reduction of pests feeding upon economically

valuable crops.
 Prevention of diseases: They prevent diseases in plants by killing pests
 Increasing yields: They are useful in increasing the productivity of crops.
 Cost effective: Pesticides are cost effective, they are cheap and easily available.
 Effective and rapid: The pesticides are toxic for living pests and the action of these
pesticides is rapid and effective to maintain the population of pests.

2.2 Disadvantages of pesticide:

 Loss of Beneficial insect species: The action of pesticides not only kill the desired
harmful pests but also kills beneficial pollinating insects. Therefore, interrupts in the
life cycle of plants.
 Poisoning hazards Pesticides are harmful for all living species: The human applicant
has been found symptoms of nausea, head ache, irritation, and severe poisoning
ailments associated with the use of pesticide in the agricultural field.
 Responsible pollutants: Pesticides are potentially harmful pollutants of air, soil and
water.

19
 Figure 6: Figure showing pesticide and its application in field.

2.3 CLASSIFICATION OF PESTICIDES

Pesticide can be classified on the basis of use and chemistry.

2.3.1. Based on the basis of use:

 Acaricides: are the substances that are used to kill mites and ticks, or to disrupt their
growth or development. and some of the examples are DDT, dicofol, , carbofuran,
methiocarb, Propoxur, abamectin, milbemectin, flufenoxuron, , chlorpyrifos,
oxydemeton methyl, Phorate, Phosalone, fenpyroximate, Fipronil, bifenthrin,
cyhalothrin, fluvalinate , permethrin, chlorfenapyr.
 Algicide: are the substances that are used to kill or inhibit algae. Some of the
examples are copper sulfate, diuron, isoproturon, isoproturon, oxyfluorfen, simazine
 Antifeedants: are the chemicals which prevent an insect or other pest from feeding.
Some of the examples are chlordimeforn, fentin and azadirachtin.
 Avicides: are the chemicals that are used to kill birds. The list include fenthion,
strychnine.
 Bactericides: are the compounds that are isolated from or produced by a
microorganism (e.g. a bacterium or a fungus), or a related chemical that is produced
artificially. which are used to kill or inhibit bacteria in plants or soil. Some of the
examples are copper hydroxide, kasugamycin, streptomycin, tetracycline .
 Bird repellents: are the chemicals which act as the bird repellants and some of the
examples are copper oxychloride, diazinon, methiocarb, thiram, ziram.

20
  Chemosterillant: are the chemicals that renders an insect infertile and thus prevents it
from reproducing. Some insects that mate only once can be controlled or eradicated
by releasing huge numbers of sterilised insects, which act as sterilizing substances for
the insects. All of these act in one of the three ways-
1. They inhibit the production of egg or spam. If it fail then go to the second stages.
2. Cause death of the spam or eggs.
3. If these steps are failed totally then these bring about lethal mutation on the spam or eggs
material and severally damage the genetic material and chromatin material of eggs and spam.
This produce zygote ,but the off springs will totally lost their reproduction ability.
Ex: diflubenzuron.

 Fungicides: are the chemicals which are used to prevent, cure eradicate the fungi.
Some of the examples are cymoxanil , carpropamid, metalaxyl , metalaxyl-M

zineb, isoprothiolane, tridemorph, edifenphos , fosetyl-Al, fenarimol, tricyclazole.
 Herbicide softeners: A chemical that protects crops from injury by herbicides, but
does not prevent the herbicide from killing weeds. Examples are benoxacor,
cloquintocet, cyometrinil, cyprosulfamide.
 Herbicides: are the substances that are used to kill plants, or to inhibit their growth or
development. Some of the examples are alachlor, butachlor, metolachlor, pretilachlor,

isoproturon, linuron, metoxuron, chlorimuron, sulfosulfuron.
 Insect attractant: A chemical that lures pests to a trap, thereby removing them from
crops, animals or stored products. Ex Gossyplure, Gyplure, Muscalure (name ends
with lure as they lure the pests).
 Insect repellents: A chemical that deters in insect from landing on a human or an
animal. Some of the examples are Citronella oil, Permethrin.
 Insecticides: A pesticide that is used to kill insects, or to disrupt their growth or
development. Some of the examples are azadirachtin, pyrethrins, carbofuran.

 Mammal repellents: A chemical that deters mammals from approaching or feeding
on crops or stored products.
 Mating disrupters: are the chemicals that interfere with the way that male and
female insects locate each other using airborne chemicals (pheromones), thereby
preventing them from reproducing.
 Molluscicides: are the substances used to kill slugs and snails. Some of the examples

parasites or predators.

22
2.3.2. On the basis of the chemistry

On the basis of chemistry pesticides are classified as insecticide, fungicide, herbicide.

3. INSECTICIDES: Insecticide, any toxic substance that is used to kill insects. Such
substances are used primarily to control pests that infest cultivated plants or to eliminate
disease-carrying insects in specific areas.

3.1. Classification of Insecticides

(a) Based on Chemical composition Inorganic insecticides Organic Insecticides

 Inorganic Insecticides
Comprise compounds of mineral origin and elemental sulphur. This group includes
arsenate and fluorine compounds as insecticides. Sulphur as acaricides and zinc
phosphide as rodenticides.
 Organic Insecticides:
1. Insecticides of animal origin: Nereistoxin isolated from marine annelids, fish oil
rosin soap from fishes etc.
2. Plant Origin insecticides or Botanical insecticides: Nicotinoids, pyrethroids,
Rotenoids etc. Synthetic organic insecticides: Organochlorines , Organophosphorous,
Carbamate insecticides etc.,
3. Hydrocarbon oils etc.

(b) Based on the mode of entry of the insecticides into the body of the insect Contact
poisons Stomach poisons Fumigants Systemic insecticides

 Contact poisons: These insecticides are capable of gaining entry into the insect body
either through spiracles and trachea or through the cuticle. Hence, these poisons can
kill the insects by mere coming in contact withs the Stomach poisons: The
23
 insecticides applied on the leaves and other parts of body of the insects. Eg:
DDT .plants when ingested act on the digestive system of the insect and bring
aboutthe kill of the insect. Eg: Calcium arsenate, lead arsenate.

 Fumigants: A fumigant is a chemical substance which is volatile at ordinary

temperatures and sufficiently toxic to the insects. Eg: Aluminium phosphide,Carbon
disulphide.
 Systemic insecticides: Chemicals that are capable of moving through the vascular
systems of plants irrespective of site of application and poisoning insects that feed on
the plants. Eg: Methyl demeton, Phosphamidon , Acephate.

(c) Based on mode of action

 Physical poisons: Bring about the kill of insects by exerting a physical effect. Eg:
Heavy oils, tar oils etc. which cause death by asphyxiation. Inert dusts effect loss of
body moisture by their abrasiveness as in aluminium oxide or absorb moisture from
the body as in charcoal.
 Protoplasmic poisons: A toxicant responsible for precipitation of protein especially
destruction of cellular protoplasm of midgut epithelium. Eg. Arsenical compounds.
 Respiratory poisons: Which block cellular respiration as in hydrogen cyanide
(HCN), Chemicals carbon monoxide etc.
 Nerve poisons: Chemicals which block Acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) and effect the
nervous system. Eg. Organophosphorous, carbamates. Chitin inhibitors: Chitin
inhibitors interfere with process of synthesis of chitin due to which normal moulting
and development is disrupted. Ex Novaluron, Lufenuron ,Buprofezin.
 General Poisons: Compounds which include neurotoxic symptoms after some
period and do not belong to the above categories. Eg.Chlordane, Toxaphene.

(d) Based on toxicity

 Extremely toxic Highly toxic Moderately toxic Less toxic

(e) Based on stage specificity

24
  Ovicides: A Substance or agent that kills eggs, especially the eggs of insects, mites,
or nematodes.
 Larvicides:- A larvicide is an insecticide that is specifically targeted against the
larval life stage of an insect
 Pupicides: A Pupicide is an insecticide that is specifically targeted against the pupa
of an insect Adulticides:- A pesticide designed to kill adult insects rather than their
larva.

3.2. Advantages of Insecticides

 Increased yields of crops because of protection from defoliation and diseases;

 Prevention of much spoilage of stored foods.
 Prevention of certain diseases, which conserves health and has saved the lives of
millions of people and domestic animals.

3.3. Disadvantages of Insecticides

 The aphids or blackfly are eating your beans before you can, reaching for the sprayer
is tempting, but pause and consider that insecticide as only a last resort.
 Some insecticides, such as insecticidal soaps, work through non-toxic methods,
 Some others contain chemicals that are harmful to other forms of life. Insecticides are
also ineffective when used excessively because pests build up resistance.

4. FUNGICIDES

Chemicals which act on fungal pathogens are fungicides and chemicals which act on bacterial
pathogens are bactericides. The fungicides can be classified basically as inorganic
fungicides, organo metallic fungicides and organic fungicides. The examples for inorganic
fungicides are Sulphur and copper compounds. Methoxy ethyl mercuric chloride which is
under restricted use pesticides list is an example for organometallic fungicide. And all other
synthetic chemicals like alachlor, oxyfluourfen etc., are organic fungicides.

4.1. Classification of fungicide: Fungicide classification is based on field behaviour of

these chemicals is contact and systemic fungicides.

(a) Contact fungicide: Among the contact fungicides there are two sub-classes of fungicides

 Non therapeutic Or Non- eradicant Or Protectant: These chemicals do have

limited mobility and applied prior to onset of the infection. Thorough coverage is
essential and acts to control further spread of the disease if applied after the infection.
These are comparatively less persistent. Ex: Copper fungicides, Sulphur, Dithio
Carbamates.
 Therapeutic or Eradicant: Therapeutic property is exhibited only at optimum or
higher concentration but the same chemical exhibits only protective action at lower
concentrations. Ex: Lime Sulphur, Edifenphos, Captan, Dinocap,
Chlorothalonil.
 Systemic: These chemicals act as protective as well as curative fungicides. They are
absorbed by the plant and translocated mostly upward direction, better control and
persistence in the plant which gives protection for longer duration. Some of the
chemicals are known to stimulate defense mechanism in the plants. Ex. TPM which
do not show fungicidal activity in -vitro but is a very good fungicide. Few of the

26
 examples of this category are Carbendazim, Fenarimol, TPM, Carboxin, Triazoles,
Antibiotics.

4.2. Advantages of Fungicides:

 A fungicide, considered a pesticide, helps to inhibit or prevent the growth of fungi on

plants, roots or seeds. Applied as a spray, powder or systemic formula, they provide
protection to mature plants, crops and help keep seeds healthy. They have historically
been risky due to their high toxicity, which can inadvertently result in poisonings and
even deaths. Modern fungicides have lower toxicity and, when used correctly, the
advantages far outweigh the risks.

4.3. Disadvantages of Fungicides:

 The disadvantages might be that we apply substances that are toxic to a form of life
(fungi) and being so, if applied carelessly, these may also be toxic to humans. In
additon, some fungicides are classed as “heavy metals” and slowly, over time, pollute
the soils.

5. HERBICIDES

A chemical pesticide designed to control or destroy plants, weeds, or grasses. Herbicides tend
to have wide-ranging effects on non-target species (other than those the pesticide is meant to
control or kill). Herbicide of application as Foliar &Soil applied. From the behavior of these
chemicals on application, these may be classified as contact and systemic herbicides. The
foliar applied herbicides may be either contact or systemic but the soil applied herbicides are
mostly systemic which is taken by the plant through the roots and translocate throughout the
plant. There is another type of classification by their action that is selective and non-
selective. The non-selective herbicides will kill all the plants without any selection whereas
selective herbicides specific for specific species and in certain crops. Further these herbicides
are classified on the basis of time of application and their activity as pre-emergent and post
emergent. The pre-emergent herbicides are applied in to the soil before the weeds are
germinated whereas the post emergent applied only after the germination.

5.1. Classification of Herbicides: The herbicides can also be classified further on the basis
of their mode of action as follows:

 Growth regulators: These are the compounds which disrupts hormone balance and
protein synthesis by which the plant ultimately dies (phenoxy acetic herbicides,
aryloxyphenoxypropionic herbicides). These are primarily broad leaf eg.2,4-D.
 Amino acid synthesis regulators: These are the compounds which inhibits specific
enzyme which is responsible for synthesis of amino acids (Acetolactate synthase)
e.g. Imidazolinone herbicides (Imazethapyr), pyrimidinylsulfonylurea herbicides

28
 (Bensulfuron Methyl), Amino acid derivatives (inhibits EPSPS enzyme)
(Glyphosate).
 Lipid synthesis inhibitors: Lipid synthesis inhibitors prevents formation of fatty
acids which are essential for production of lipids.
 Seedling growth inhibitors: Seedling growth inhibitors are shoot growth inhibitors,
root growth inhibitors. These chemicals inhibits cell division, and lipid or protein
synthesis, in the seedling e.g. Acetanilide herbicides (Butachlor).
 Photosynthetic inhibitors: Photosynthetic inhibitors inhibits electron transfer in
photosynthesis and hence conversion of sun light in the chemical energy e.g.
Triazines (Atrazine).
 Cell membrane disrupters: These group of chemicals disrupts cell membrane. e.g.
Bypyridyliums or quaternary ammonium salts (Paraquat).
 Pigment Inhibitors: These chemicals prevents formation of pigments necessary for
photosynthesis. Bleaching or whitening of leaves occur. e.g. Isoxazolidones
(Clomazone).

5.2. Advantages of Herbicides:

 Herbicides can kill many weeds that survive by mimicry, e.g. Phalaris minor and
Avena spp. in wheat and Echinochloa spp. in rice.
 Herbicides can be safely used where manual weeding damages the crop, e.g. onion,
garlic, cumin etc.
 Herbicides are convenient to use on perennial and parasitic weeds where other
methods are not effective.
 Herbicides can effectively be used in closely planted crops where manual and
mechanical weeding is not possible.

5.3. Disadvantages of Herbicides:

 Health Risks: Most herbicides pose a significant health risk to both humans and pets if
the chemical substances are breathed or ingested, or if they come in contact with skin.
 Non-Selective Vegetation Removal. Some types of herbicides are non-selective.
 Persistence in Soil.

29
  Water Runoff.

7.3 Farmer Meetings and Demo Product Promotions

Farmer Meetings and demo promotions were done purposely to promote our products and
know the problems of the farmers of the area. There were number of farmer meetings and
demo promotions were done while our field exposure. Some of the major farmer meetings
and demo promotions done during the training period are as follows:
 Conducted a farmers meeting in the village Bindukheda, Rudrapur with company
officials and teammates. A total of 33 farmers attended the meeting. The main motive
of this farmer meeting was to promote all over major products used in the paddy
crops.

 Drone technology has significantly impacted agriculture,
offering innovative solutions for monitoring, assessing, and
managing field crops. Drones equipped with various sensors
and imaging capabilities have proven highly valuable in
precision agriculture. Here's how drones are used in field crop
management:

1. Aerial Imaging and Mapping: Drones equipped with cameras,

multispectral, hyperspectral, or thermal sensors capture high-
resolution images of crops and fields. These images can be
used to create detailed maps, assess crop health, identify areas
of stress, and detect diseases or pests early on.
2. Crop Monitoring and Management: Drones provide real-time
monitoring capabilities, allowing farmers to track crop growth,

67
 irrigation needs, and the effectiveness of fertilization. This data
aids in making informed decisions about adjusting irrigation,
applying fertilizers, or pesticides precisely where needed,
optimizing resource use and increasing yields.
3. Precision Agriculture: Drones enable farmers to practice
precision agriculture by precisely targeting areas that require
attention. This can involve the application of pesticides,
herbicides, or fertilizers with accuracy, reducing the overall
usage and minimizing environmental impact.
4. Field Scouting and Assessment: Drones equipped with
specialized sensors can analyze plant health and detect
anomalies not visible to the naked eye. This enables farmers to
quickly identify issues such as nutrient deficiencies, water stress,
or diseases across large areas, facilitating timely intervention.
5. Yield Estimation: By analyzing data collected by drones over
time, farmers can estimate yields more accurately. This
information is invaluable for planning harvest logistics,
predicting market supply, and managing resources effectively.

Demonstration on field crops using drone technology typically

involves:

 Flight Demonstration: Showing how drones take off, navigate,

and collect data over the fields. This includes demonstrating
safety procedures, flight planning, and the use of different
sensors or cameras for data collection.
 Data Collection: Capturing real-time imagery or data using
drones equipped with various sensors (e.g., RGB, multispectral,
thermal) to showcase their ability to monitor crop health, detect
anomalies, and gather information crucial for decision-making.
 Data Analysis: Displaying and interpreting the collected data
to demonstrate how it can be used to assess crop health,

68
 identify areas of concern, and make informed management
decisions.
 Practical Applications: Highlighting specific examples of how
drone technology can be used for crop management, such as
precise pesticide application, irrigation management, or early
pest and disease detection.

Such demonstrations aim to illustrate the practical benefits of

drone technology in agriculture, showcasing its role in
optimizing crop production, reducing input costs, and
improving overall farm management.

8. CONCLUSION

During the Industrial Training at Sumitomo Chemicals Pvt Ltd. The workers have long been
exposed to various activities and tasks in this company indirectly, trainees also have to know
every responsibility and role in the company. Exposure to real working environment is good
for student as trainers, especially to open the minds and brains to be more creative and highly
knowledgeable, students can also identify and address issues that often arise in real work
situations. It will further enhance the student's ability to think, learn independently and solve
problems effectively and more importantly can produce creative work and quality.

During training in technician department coach can identify some strengths and weaknesses
of the company. However, this drawback can be overcome and repaired. Principles of
organization and administrative functions play an important role in creating a robust
organizational planning, coordination and control is essential to coordinate all tasks. An
organization must be established and excellent efficient and effective decision-making and
planning, and this is the main principle in the management of an organization. Such training
also can and will produce graduates who are knowledgeable and a great personality.

Practical is a complement to the science or theory learned. This is clearly the concept of
science and charity, where they have learned without practice will be lost and will not give
anything - what effect. So if we do without the knowledge of course there will be problems in
terms of grip and stance ever - changing.

During my industrial training, there are many changes from the point of learning
environments and discussion among colleagues. It can directly increase the dedication and
rational attitude toward myself.

However, there are still some weaknesses that can be improved in the future. Therefore I
conclude that the industrial training program has provided many benefits to students even if
there are minor flaws that are somewhat disfiguring condition , so that this weakness can be
rectified in the future.
