Are there other products that could be used in place of Furadan in Kenya?
There is only one other product, an organophosphate, which is registered in Kenya that controls the same pests in the same crops. This product has equivalent toxicity to carbofuran. It is scientifically well known that continuous use of a single product can lead to insect resistance and the loss of the crop. This would be an unacceptable solution for Kenya agriculture and the growers who depend on crops for their livelihood.
