Pesticide formulation. Each pesticide contains a chemical or 'active ingredient' (a.i.) which is responsible for its pesticidal effect, but pesticides are rarely supplied as preparations of neat, concentrated or technical grade chemical. The active ingredient must be formulated with other non-pesticidal compounds before it is ready to use. Formulation generally improves the properties of a chemical for: storage, handling, application, effectiveness and safety.
