ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all the people who were a part of my Summer Internship Program and helped me make it learning and a rewarding experience. This would not have been possible without the help of Mr. Prem Sagar (Chairman) who has given me this wonderful opportunity to be able to study and observe the whole unit. He helped me in coordinating and getting information from various departmental heads. I also thank Mr. Nadeem Ahmed (Q. Analyser) who supported me with his invaluable insights and suggestions. My project and the tremendous work exposure I had in this Unit would have been incomplete if I had not had his cooperation. I express my gratitude to my RAWE Co-ordinator Dr. S K Thakral who was a source of constant support and guidance. His guidance and inputs were very important for the completion of this project. I would also like to extend my gratitude and regards to the teams of Unit Om prakash, Mohali who supported me and gave me their valuable time for helping me in understanding the various activities being undertaken by them.

PREFACE
World use of pesticides in 1999 was an estimated $28 billion at the user level, an increase of 1% from 1994. The market for herbicide-tolerant and insect-tolerant crops expanded to over $2 billion in 1999, representing a total crop protection market of over $30 billion. This increase was mainly a result of market expansions in the United States, Europe, parts of Asia, and Latin America. By 2004, world pesticide sales will decline to $27 billion annually. This represents a real decline in worldwide use of pesticides (in terms of 1999 dollars) at an average rate of 1% per year. The decline in pesticide usage will likely be offset by increases in pest- and pesticide-tolerant crops. The 1999 sales of pesticides are estimated at 2 million metric tons active ingredient, including user-level sales and exports. Volumes are expected to decrease about 1.0-1.5% per year to 2004, while inflation and higher-unit-value products could add a 2-3% rate of growth per year to the dollar value of the industry over this period.
