AB  - The impact of an ad valorem pesticide tax on cropping patterns and 
pesticide use was examined In the South Central Texas Crop Reporting 
District. Output supply equations were econometrically estimated and 
used in the simulation. A 25 percent tax on pesticide was estimated 
to have major impacts on cropping patterns and on pesticide use. 
Assuming other input and output prices were unaffected, the supply of 
one important crop would fall by more than half. Demand for some of 
the highly soluble and persistent pesticides, which present the 
greatest threat to groundwater quality, would also decrease 
substantially (some as much as 50 percent).
