When is Soil Incorporation an appropriate method of pesticide application?

To soak or wet the ground surface with a pesticide.
The placement of a pesticide below the surface of the soil.
A pesticide applied directly on or in the soil rather than on a growing plant.
The movement of a pesticide into soil by either mechanical means or irrigation.

The correct answer is: The movement of a pesticide into soil by either mechanical means or irrigation.

Soil incorporation as a method of pesticide application is appropriate when the intention is to move the pesticide into the soil by either mechanical means, such as tillage, or through irrigation. By incorporating the pesticide into the soil, it can help target pests that reside in the soil or below the soil surface. This method can also reduce exposure of the pesticide to non-target organisms, such as pollinators, by keeping it below the soil surface. On the other hand, options A, B, and C do not specifically involve moving the pesticide into the soil through mechanical means or irrigation, making them incorrect in the context of soil incorporation.
