What is US regulation and new pesticide registrations and sales about?

This article empirically examines the impact of regulation on new pesticide crop use registrations and sales. Results suggest that regulatory costs negatively affect new pesticide crop use registrations, require firms to develop only high-revenue pesticides that generate sufficient revenue to meet the higher testing costs associated with regulation, and cause a decline in minor crop pesticide registrations. From a public policy perspective, results suggest that the availability of effective chemical pesticides for minor crops, such as fruits and vegetables, will likely decline over time.
