The document discusses the fates of herbicides and insecticides and the classification of insecticides. It outlines the various ways herbicides and insecticides can degrade or move in the environment, such as adsorption to soil, photo degradation, leaching, drift, and entering the food chain. Insecticides can be classified based on their chemical composition, mode of entry, mode of action, stage of insect affected, and toxicity level. The classifications include organic versus inorganic, contact versus stomach poison, nerve poison versus respiratory poison, ovicide versus adulticide, and extremely toxic versus less toxic.
