Crop pests include insects, fungi and weeds. It is not common to combine insecticides, fungicides and herbicides (weedkillers) but rather to apply them as individual or single formulations.The pesticide applicator sprayer is normally tractor-mounted and the tractor power-take-off shaft drives the spray pump. Such sprayer equipment (Figure 6) can also be used to apply liquid fertilizer especially where foliar applications are relevant (e.g. cereals).
Protection from rodents requires rodenticides and protective equipment to prevent rodents from entering the crop store. In developed agricultural systems, the modern farm is viewed primarily as a production unit where the harvested product is rapidly transferred to agribusiness and food companies which have the necessary technological, management and financial resources to adequately treat and preserve farm produce in bulk.
