Abstract
Dislodgeable foliar residue (DFR) is the amount of pesticide residue deposited on plant leaves after pesticide application which may be dislodged by people during the performance of various tasks. This can subsequently be transferred to human skin and clothes that may cause potential risk. However, the factors influencing DFR are unknown.
