Part 1 Introduction: controlled delivery and foliar spraying; - and soil application; controlled release technology for pest management. Part 2 Controlled delivery by sprayable systems: development and uses of microencapsulated; preparation of microencapsulated insecticides and their release mechanisms. Part 3 Granular systems and soil application: soil applied controlled release products and Suscon technology; biodegradable polymer methods. Part 4 Release into the air: controlled release systems for the delivery of insect pheromones. Part 5 Aquatic applications: controlled release aquatic herbicides. Part 6 Controlled delivery of biopesticides: controlled release of biological control agents; microbial pesticide controlled release formulations; cellular delivery systems for insecticidal proteins - living and non-living mico-organisms. Part 7 Evaluation of controlled release systems: evaluation of controlled release - efficacy, environment and commercial aspects; approaches to the evaluation of controlled release pesticides in the laboratory and field.
