FOREWORD This is the 44th volume in a series of commodity-oriented environmental bibliographies resulting from a memorandum of understanding between the U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Agricultural Library (USDA-NAL) and the U.S. Environmental , Protection Agency, Office of Pesticide Programs (EPA-OPP) This close working relationship between the two agencies will produce a series of bibliographies which will be useful to EPA in the regulation of pesticides, as well as to any researcher in the field of plant or commodity protection. The broad scope of information contained in this series will benefit USDA, EPA, and the agricultural community as a whole. The sources referenced in these bibliographies include the majority of the latest available information from U.S. publications involving commodity protection throughout the growing and processing stages for each agricultural commodity. We welcome the opportunity to join this cooperative effort between USDA and EPA in support of the national agricultural community. JOSEPH H. HOWARD, Director DOUGLAS D.
