Uses:
Ethoprophos is a non-systemic, non-fumigant nematicide, which is also effective against several soil-borne insects. It is applied to several annual and perennial crops, in general at sowing or planting. Owing to its contact and non-fumigant action it has to be worked into the soil immediately after application and to be brought to the soil level where the pest population in the following crop will mainly occur, i. E. In the root zone.
