SPECIFICATION FORQUINALPHOS GRANULES

( First Revision)

o. FORE WORD{l.1 This Indian Standard (First Revision ) was adopted by the IndianStandards Institution on 31 March 1987, after the draft finalized bythe Pest Control Sectronal Committee had heen approved by theAgricultural and Food Products DIvISIOn Council and the ChemicalDivision Council.

{l.2 Quinal phos granules are widely used in the control of agriculturalpests.

0.3 Ouinalphos granules are generally manufactured to contain 5 percent(m/m) of quinalphos.

0.4 This standard was first published In 1980. Subsequently an amend­ment was Issued In this revision references have been updated andmethod of test modified.

0.5 In the preparation of this standard due consideration has been givento the provisions of the Insecnctdes Act, 1968 and the rules framedthereunder. However, this standard is subject to the restrictions Imposedunder these, wherever apphcable.

0.6 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of thisstandard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated,expressing the result of a test or analysts, shall be rounded off III accor­dance WIth IS : 2-1960*. The number of sigmficant places retained inthe rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified valuein this standard.

1. SCOPE

1.1 This standard prescribes the requirements, and the methods of samp­hng and test for qumalphos granules.
