The English concept often infers that the concentration of active ingredient or pesticide can be measured in a pesticidal product either as marketed or in its diluted form, ready for application. It thus appears that the English "concentration" is a generic term, whereas the French language makes a distinction between such measurements according to whether they are taken before (teneur) or after (concentration d'emploi) a product's dilution. 4, record 1, English, - concentration

Bien que «concentration d'emploi» rend bien le sens de la notion, la forme elliptique «concentration» est d'usage plus courant. Le terme «concentration (d'emploi)» a été normalisé par l'AFNOR pour les bouillies à épandre seulement. Sur ce point, l'AFNOR se distingue de plusieurs autres sources dignes de foi qui englobent également les produits à l'état solide dans cette notion. 3, record 1, French, - concentration%20d%27emploi
