It is a violation of the Ohio pesticide law and FIFRA to:

• A. Use a pesticide on a crop not listed on the label
• B. Ignore 'Do not' statements on the label
• C. Use a pesticide at a higher concentration than is stated on the label
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

Pesticide labels are legal requirements, not just guidelines. The label tells you exactly where and how a product may be used, and complying with it is required by both FIFRA and Ohio law. Using a pesticide on a crop that isn’t listed on the label is not authorized, so it’s a violation. The label also includes explicit restrictions, such as “do not” statements, which you must follow to protect safety, the environment, and the crop. Exceeding the labeled concentration or rate is illegal because the label sets the maximum amount you may apply. Since each of these actions breaks the label’s terms, all of the above are violations.
