The 'Substanz' is the plant protection product. Is there a more commonly used term than “administration of the substance”? |

| | English translation:[active] agent/substance | Explanation:
administration of the active agent/substance, where the active agent is the pesticide
Using just "application of the agent" should also be alright/
For example:
Furthermore, a chemical application just after the introduction of natural enemies generally has more of a negative effect than when used on an established population of natural enemies. If no alternative food (such as pollen) is available, the application of agents that destroy the predatory mites’ prey will lead to the considerable reduction of the population of predatory mites.
