Pesticides Cont. from page 5 cent of the crops in Oregon are lost to pests each year, Research on alternative controls, like crop rotation and biological controls, may help farmers use fewer chem icals in the future, but lots of research work still has to be done. For example, predatory insects have been used suc cessfully to control pest in sects, but researchers still need to know more about managing the beneficial in sects. The alternatives available to farmers today depend on changes in the registration process. A U.S. Senate-House committee is considering an amendment to the 1972 envi ronmental pesticide control act which simplifies the regis tration process and eases the law's effects on Oregon's specialty crop growers. If adopted, minor-use pesti cides would receive special consideration. The amend ment also permits users to apply less than label dosages if they can do the job, to apply the pesticide with equipment not prohibited on the label, and to mix the pesticide with fertilizer for application. An increasing need for alternative controls should encourage chemical compa nies to produce more new , pesticides. However, at to day's cost of $10 million to $15 million to develop a new pesticide over a 10-year per iod, manufacturers are pro ducing fewer and fewer che micals. Soon farmers and consu-' mers will be forced to decide whether "the benefits of in creased food production are worth the risks of pesticide use. Above all, is the the consi deration of human and envi ronmental safety. But farm ers are also facing a real dilemma since they cannot produce enough food for the world without using pesti cides.
