o water solubility
o soil adsorptivity (Koc)
o soil leaching potential
o toxicity (LD 50s etc)
o half-life
o other environmental fate indices such as volatilization rates
o label warnings for use - danger, caution etc
o formulations and active ingredient information, application rates for each
and any other factors that could be considered important in evaluating the

Thanks for your help.
