Pesticide computer in operation
WASHINGTON. D.C. - A
computerized system that quickly
retrieves up-to-the minute facts
about registered pesticides across
the country passed from the pilot
stage to full operation Oct 10.
Management of the system will
continue at Purdue University,
West Lafayette, Ind., where the
successful pilot program
originated.
Called NPIRS, short for National
Pesticide Information Retrieval
System, the system was developed
at Purdue in cooperation with
three U.S. Department of
Agriculture agencies ~ the
Cooperative State Research
Service, the Extension Service and
Agricultural Research Service.
Jim White, the system’s user
service manager at Purdue, said
NPIRS provides the latest in
formation about key charac
teristics of pesticide products
registered by the U.S. En
vironmental Protection Agency
and participating state regulatory
agencies through a computer
network.
Users of the system pay what
White called “nominal mem
bership and user fees.”
White said the service is
available to member organizations
such as land-grand universities,
state and federal regulatory of
fices, state and federal scientists,
the pesticides industry, various
user groups and organizations and
others working on pesticide
related activities.
“The service fills a long
recognized need,” said White.
“In the past,” be said, "by the
time a compendium of pesticide
changes was compiled and issued,
it already was out-of-date. Now,
“He is not suspicious, or
shrinkingly submissive, like
horses, cattle, and sheep; nor an
impudent devil-may-care like the
goat; nor hostile like the goose;
nor condescending like the cat; or
a flattering parasite like the dog.

"Indications are that most states
with pesticide registration
programs will submit their state
date for use in the program,” said
White. “Twenty-three states
already are committed.”
White said the service should
prove especially valuable to
agricultural and pest control
consultants. Extension Services,
Agricultural Experiment Stations,
regulatory agencies, pesticide
associated industries, trade and
professional associations, teachers
and others.
He said a user’s guide has been
completed and will be available to
those who join the system.

Hudson on the pig, from The Book
of a Naturalist.
through the computer network,
which contains EPA and state
registration date updated
regularly, NPIRS members can
rapidly acquire timely pesticide
information."
During the past year, procedures
for the system were tested in
programs involving 12 states, the
USDA, EPA and representatives of
private industry.
“Already, 30 state agencies, a
dozen industries and a half-dozen
governmental agencies have
signed up for the service,” said
White. “Inquiries showing strong
interest have been received from
nearly 100 other groups, in
stitutions and industries.”
Customers of the system can get
pesticide label information, in
cluding active ingredients and
products, via dial-up on standard
computer terminals. They also can
search for sites, pests, EPA
registration numbers and brand
names at both the federal and state
levels.
Entry of state date is optional for
the states.
