Abstract
Strawberries were harvested 1–21 days after pesticide application, and pesticide residues in the strawberries with stems were analyzed. Five pesticides were found to be lower than the maximum residue level in Taiwan after 1 day of application. A positive correlation was observed between the application mass and the residue level after 1 day of application. If the predicted residues of a pesticide after 1 day of application, based on the amount of application, were less than the maximum residue level in Taiwan, the pesticide was considered to be suitable for use in strawberries for export to Taiwan.
