Abstract
  • Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool (Web-PST) is a web-based software application for evaluating the potential risk of pesticides on the surrounding environment. It uses the formulas and standards specified by the Soil/Pesticide Interaction Screening Procedure Version II (SPISP II). Web-PST closely models the stand-alone Windows application Windows Pesticide Screening Tool (WIN-PST). For a given pesticide, a soil type, and a cultivation practice, Web-PST evaluates the likelihood of pesticide loss and its potential risks to both humans and fish. In addition to hazard ratings, Web-PST allows the user to generate a list of pests that can be controlled with a given pesticide. It also generates a list of the types of agricultural situations where the pesticide is commonly applied. We have also integrated Web-PST into the Online Agricultural Conservation Planning Tool (OAC) environment. Web­PST can receive data from and send result back to the OAC interface.
