Toxicity to the adzuki bean weevil varied with different N-alkyl groups. N-isopropylphosphoramido- thioate was the most toxic of the compounds tested, and N-unsubstituted, N-methyl- and N-ethylphosphoramidothioates were more toxic than fenitrothion. However, N-propyl and N-butyl homologs were less active than fenitrothion with the exception of the N-isopropyl homolog. LD50 values of the phosphoramidothioates for the insect were not correlated with in vitro anti-AChE activity of the phosphoramidates. 150 of N-isopropylphosphoramidate for acetylcholinesterases from adzuki bean weevil and bovine serum was higher than 10-3 M. When the phosphoramidothioates and phosphoramidate were incubated with rat liver micro- somal system, AChE activity of bovine serum was strongly inhibited in the presence of NADPH. Inhibition of AChE activity was reduced by addition of SKF 525-A to the micro- somal system. The compounds became also potent inhibitors for AChE by treatment with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. From these results, it was concluded that phosphoramidothioates and their oxons were activated oxidatively to inhibit AChE by the microsomal system as well as chemical treatment with peracid. of amide groups of phosphoramidothioate or INTRODUCTION phosphoramidate insecticides except schradan Bioactivity of phosphoramidothioates is vari- (octamethylpyrophosphoramidate).

Introduction Pesticides are one of this century's great agricultural ironies. Pesticide use allows for tremendous increases in productivity and permits food and fiber production in areas that would have been impractical to cultivate without pesticides.' Conversely. pesticides prove to be one of the significant human environmental dilemmas of this century: persistence and toxicity of pesticides. misuse in applications. and pest resistance all extract a toll on human health and the environment A necessary role for pesticides exists, but policy makers must account for potential costs and balance them against the benefits to ensure that pesticide benefits do not come at the expense of high health and environmental costs. This need, to balance costs against benefits, is intensified in the realm of agricultural trade, as pesticides and products grown with pesticides move across political boundaries. Part of this problem stems from differing pesticide regulations for production. use, and residue tolerances in different countrles,2 but the lack of economic rationales in creating policies compounds the problem.

Letter from Washington 35 Years of Progress and the Tipping Point Within Our Sight eyond Pesticides in 2016 celebrates a rich 35-year history of agricultural systems can feed the world better than chemical-intensive accomplishments in organic policy and land management. We approaches. While we tinkered with integrated pest management Bare honored to be part of an extensive network of communities, (IPM) as an agricultural tool to reduce pesticide dependency, the lack people, organizations, scientists, and practitioners that educates on of a holistic approach to soil health, protection of biodiversity, and the hazards of pesticides, while moving decision and policy makers the identification of least-toxic inputs diminished its effectiveness as a to adopt sustainable organic practices. With its proven viability, we long-term sustainability approach in land management. see within our sights the opportunity for a societal transformation to organic practices that protect the environment on which life depends. I served on the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) for a 5-year term (2010-2015). Having spearheaded the 1982 Organic Farming Meeting the urgent challenges Act, which became the 1983 Agricultural Productivity Act and USDA’s We use this occasion only to reenergize ourselves to meet the urgent Low-Input Sustainable Agriculture (LISA) program, and then the 1990 challenges ahead. We are at the center of the organic transformation Organic Foods Production Act (OFPA), we knew we had tremendous that crosses issues of clean air and water, healthy food, and soil practices institutional barriers within USDA to implement policies that defied that build organic matter, sequesters carbon, and slows climate change.
