This survey was a cooperative project between the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) and the National Animal Health Monitoring System within the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). Data collection for the survey began in early January 2007. The 17 Program States in the survey account for approximately 91 percent of the milk cow inventory in the United States, based on the January 2007 Milk Production release published by the United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (USDA-NASS). Dairy cattle inventories are reprinted in this report from a previous NASS release for informational purposes. This report provides insecticide use information on dairy cattle and dairy facilities in the 17 selected States. The States surveyed were: California (CA), Idaho (ID), Indiana (IN), Iowa (IA), Kentucky (KY), Michigan (MI), Minnesota (MN), Missouri (MO), New Mexico (NM), New York (NY), Ohio (OH), Pennsylvania (PA), Texas (TX), Vermont (VT), Virginia (VA), Washington (WA), and Wisconsin (WI). All data refer to the on-farm use of chemical active ingredients contained in insecticides which were applied during the 2006 calendar year. Insecticides are defined as chemical products used for the control of insects. Insecticides are applied to dairy cattle and dairy facilities to control mange/mites, lice, flies, grubs, and other external pests. Chemical usage on dairy cattle are provided on a rate per head per application and rate per head per year basis. Some dairy cattle received no chemical applications in 2006, whereas, other dairy cattle received multiple applications of the same chemical. In yet other cases, dairy cattle received applications of several different chemicals. The number of times a chemical was applied varied significantly based on product formulation, method of application, and pest stress at particular locations. The rate per head data cannot be used to calculate the actual number of head treated with a particular chemical. Some active ingredients, such as petroleum distillate, piperonyl butoxide, and xylene are primarily carriers, diluents, synergists, or repellents. These active ingredients are classified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as pesticides, and are therefore included in this report. This report excludes pharmaceutical products that treat dairy cattle for internal pests. A pharmaceutical is classified as a drug and is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Pharmaceuticals generally target internal livestock pests such as viruses, bacteria, or worms. Some products can be classified as either a pesticide or a pharmaceutical because they treat both external and internal pests. Examples of dual purpose products are Doramectin and Ivermectin. These products can be applied to dairy cattle internally through oral dosage or injection, or applied externally as a pour-on. Insecticide use information on chemical applications made to dairy facilities is also included in this report. For survey purposes, milking parlors, pens, drylots, stalls, hutches, sheds, and barns are examples of dairy cattle facilities. Only those chemical applications that were made to the facilities and structures for the control of insects and pests were included. Herbicides, termite chemicals, disinfectants, and sanitizer applications are excluded, as are all rodenticides. Highlights 2006 Dairy Cattle and Dairy Cattle Facilities Agricultural Chemical Use All Dairy Cattle: Agricultural producers applied a total of 174,000 pounds of insecticides to dairy cattle during 2006 in the 17 States surveyed. The insecticides most commonly used on dairy cattle during 2006, based on total pounds applied, for all Program States were Piperonyl butoxide, at 44,800 pounds, followed by Permethrin, at 42,300 pounds. Tetrachlorvinphos (Z-isomer) was the third most commonly used active ingredient, with 37,600 total pounds used during 2006 in the States surveyed. These three active ingredients accounted for 72 percent of the total pounds of active ingredients applied to dairy cattle. The agricultural chemical usage data in this report were summarized based upon the percentage of active ingredient included in an insecticide product. In order to publish data for an active ingredient, there must be a minimum of 5 reports for the specific active ingredient at the summary level (by State or all Program States). In cases where there are not enough reports to publish usage data for a given active ingredient, a list of active ingredients and the States in which they were applied appear on page 22 of this publication. Of the total chemical applications made to dairy cattle during 2006 in the 17 selected States, 58 percent were made as pour-on applications, 28 percent were made using a sprayer, and 4 percent used dust bags or hand dusters. Ear tags, rubbing devices, and various other methods of application accounted for the remaining 10 percent of applications made to dairy cattle. Of the total chemical applications made to dairy cattle during 2006 in the 17 Program States, 59 percent of the applications were to control flies, 23 percent for lice, and 9 percent were for mange/mites. All other pests accounted for the remaining 9 percent. All Cattle Facilities: In the 17 Program States surveyed, a total of 149,100 pounds of insecticide were applied to dairy cattle facilities in 2006. Imidacloprid had the highest total quantity used at 27,500 pounds. Cyfluthrin had the second highest quantity used at 25,300 pounds followed by Piperonyl butoxide at 22,700 pounds. These three active ingredients accounted for 51 percent of the total pounds of active ingredients applied to dairy cattle facilities. Application data for active ingredients which have 5 or more reports will appear in the Program States or individual State tables. In cases where there are not enough reports to publish usage data for a given active ingredient, a list of active ingredients, and the States in which they were applied, appear on page 23 of this publication. Of the total chemical applications made to dairy facilities in the 17 Program States in 2006, 24 percent were made to the milking parlor, 18 percent were made to tie stall/stanchion, 17 percent were made to freestall barns, 13 percent to calf hutches, and 9 percent to individual or multi-pens. Highlights 2006 Dairy Cattle and Dairy Cattle Facilities Agricultural Chemical Use In the 17 States surveyed, there were 1,431 reports summarized for chemicals applied directly to dairy cattle and 793 reports summarized for chemicals applied to dairy facilities.

Survey Procedures: The estimates in this report are based on the 2006 National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) General Dairy Management Report conducted in January 2007, in the 17 Program States. This survey was based on a sample of pre-screened operators reporting dairy cattle on the 2006 January Cattle survey. Enumerators collected a variety of information including insecticide applications to dairy cattle and dairy cattle facilities for respondents' entire operation. Data were collected in the State where the operation's headquarters was located. Estimation Procedures: The chemical applications data, reported by product name or trade name, are reviewed within States and across States for reasonableness and consistency. This review also compares reported data with manufacturers' recommendations and with data from other farm operators using the same product. Following this review, product information are converted to an active ingredient level. The chemical usage estimates in this publication consist of survey estimates of those active ingredients. Estimates of the total amount of active ingredient applied are based on the number of dairy cattle on hand as of January 1, 2007 published in the annual NASS report "Cattle Report" [Mt An 2 (2-07)]. The estimates for total amount applied will not be revised even if there are subsequent inventory revisions. Detailed data within a table may not multiply across or add down due to independent rounding of the published values. Reliability: The survey was designed so that the estimates are statistically representative of chemical use on dairy cattle and dairy cattle facilities. The reliability of these survey results is affected by sampling variability and non-sampling errors. Sampling variability is a measure of how the estimates would differ if other samples had been drawn. The sampling variability expressed as a percent of the estimate is called the coefficient of variation (cv). Sampling variability of the estimates differed considerably by chemical. In general, the more often the chemical was applied, the smaller the sampling variability. For example, estimates of use of a commonly used product, such as Ivermectin, will exhibit less variability than a more rarely used product. For more commonly used chemicals, cv's range from 10-65 percent at the U.S. level. Some rate items could have cv's above 100 percent. Those items which have an insufficient number of reports for publication are noted on pages 22 and 23 of the publication. Non-sampling errors occur during a survey process, and unlike sampling variability, are difficult to measure. They may be caused by interviewers failing to follow instructions, poorly worded questions, non-response, problematic survey procedures, or data handling mistakes between collection and publication. In this survey, all survey procedures and analyses were carried out in a consistent and orderly manner to minimize the occurrence of these types of errors.

Terms and Definitions Active ingredient: The specific chemical which kills or controls the target pest(s). Usage data are reported by pesticide product and are converted to an amount of active ingredient. Agricultural chemicals: The phrase, "agricultural chemicals," refers to the active ingredients in pesticides. Application rates: The application rates refer to the average weight of a pesticide active ingredient applied to a volume of product. For this survey, rate per application is the average number of grams applied in one application. Rate per year is the average number of grams applied counting multiple applications. Carrier: An inert liquid, solid, or gas added to an active ingredient to make a pesticide dispense effectively. A carrier is also the material, usually water or oil, used to dilute the formulated product for application. Common name: The common name is an officially recognized name for an active ingredient. This report shows active ingredient by common name. Diluent: Any liquid or solid material used to dilute or carry an active ingredient. Dips: Dips are used to eradicate or effectively control parasites. The most common method used to control parasites are through the use of dip vats. Dip vats are used to ensure that the animal is thoroughly covered to prevent the transmitting of the disease. Drench: Drench treatments for livestock are formulated as pastes to be applied orally with a ready-to-use syringe. Drylot: An enclosed, unpaved area where the animals can move about freely and where they can feed along a feed apron, except during milking. Dust Bags/Hand Dusters: Dusts can be applied to animals by hand shakers or in self-treatment dust bags. Dust bags are most effective when used in forced-use situations especially where cattle have to pass under them daily to get to water or feed. Ear Tags: Ear tags and plastic devices can be impregnated with an insecticide. These ear tags are usually used for ear tick and horn fly control. Feed and Mineral Pesticide Additives: Certain pesticides may be administered as feed or mineral additives. Feed additives are used to prevent the development of fly larvae in animal feces. Feed additives target fly maggots breeding in fresh animal manure by controlling certain fly species whose maggot stages occur in animal manure. Feed Apron or Feed Bunk: A paved or hard surface along one side of a drylot where feed is provided to the animals. Freestall Barn: A barn where animals are managed in individual open stalls and are free to roam around. The animals can move about freely. Injectables: Pesticides applied by subcutaneous injection. Some injectables control internal parasites with added benefit of external control. Loafing Area: A resting area for cattle. Loafing sheds are structures that have at least one side open to the elements. This three-sided loafing shed offers protection from flies, summer sun, winter wind, rain, and storms. This type of structure is also known as a run-in shed. Milking Parlor: A facility where lactating cows are managed before, during, and after milking. Pesticides: As defined by the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), pesticides include any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating any pest, and any substance or mixture of substances intended for use as a plant regulator, defoliant, or desiccant. Pour-Ons: Pour-on insecticides are formulated for direct application to the backlines of animals. The chemical is absorbed through the skin and circulates through the animal's system. Repellent: A pesticide used to keep target pests away from a treated area by saturating the area with an odor that is disagreeable to the pest. Rubbing Device (Backrubber, Face Rubber): Backrubbers are another method of insecticide self-treatment for cattle. Cattle bothered by insects rub against devices soaked with insecticides. Backrubbers are placed where animals move to and from, such as between watering areas and pasture. Spot-Ons: Spot-on pesticides are easily applied. This method involves applying a small amount of pesticide with specially designed applicators in a single area or 'spot' on the backlines of animals. Sprays: Emulsifiable concentrates, or soluble formulations are usually used with smaller sprayers. Animals are usually sprayed with enough solution to cover the animal thoroughly. Stanchion: A stanchion is a specially designed headgate to hold an animal in place while allowing feeding and resting. Synergist: A material which exhibits synergism; that is, the joint action of different agents results in an effect greater than the sum of their separate effects. Tie Stall Barn: A barn where animals are confined to stalls or stanchions and each cow is individually tied with a strap or chain. Trade name: A trademark name given to a specific formulation of a pesticide product. A formulation contains a specific concentration of the active ingredient, carrier materials, and other ingredients such as emulsifiers and wetting agents. Some formulations, as in the case of pre-mixes, can contain more than one active ingredient. Pesticide Class, Common Names, and Trade Names The following is a list of the pesticide class, (I=Insecticide), common names, and trade names of active ingredients in this publication. This list is provided as an aid in reviewing pesticide data. The list is not complete for all trade names used and NASS does not mean to promote the use of any specific trade name. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class : Common Names : Trade Names ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I : Abamectin Fatal Attraction I : Amitraz Takic E.C.
