Appendix A.1.
Herbicides and insecticides used in the pilot year (1996), trade name, normal dosage per hectare, active ingredient(s) and treatment intensity index. Normal dosage is not equal recommended dosage, see section 1.2.4 for a definition of normal dosage. A treatment intensity index of 1.00 for a particular product is given for application of the recommended dosage in a certain crop according to the list of recommended dosages (Statens Planteavlsforsøg 1997). All herbicides and insecticides have been applied in reduced dosages at the plots destined for reduced dosages.
