environmental components of the EIQ equation.

EIQ equation component	Equation
Farmworker (applicator + harvester)	c∗((dt∗5) + (dt∗p))
Consumer (exposure + groundwater effects)	(c∗(s + p)/2∗sy) + (L)
Ecology (fish, birds, bees, other beneficial insects)	(f∗r) + (d∗(s + p)/2∗3) + (z∗p∗3) + (b∗p∗5)
Total EIQ = farmworker + consumer + ecology
{[c∗(dt∗5) + (dt∗p)] + [(c∗(s + p)/2∗sy) + (L)+[(f∗r)+(d∗(s + p)/2∗3) + (z∗p∗3) + (b∗p∗5)]}/3 (1)
Field use EIQ = EIQ ∗ % active ingredient ∗ rate/ha (2)
