Starting with linear free energy relationships (LFER), drug design to mimic of the activated complexes at transition state, and hydrolysis mechanisms to control the potency and residual properties of pesticides were introduced and summarized for the necessity. In order to understand the searching or development of new agrochemicals by two dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (2D QSAR) methodology, a series of the various descriptors, steric constants, electronic constants including quantum pharmacological parameters and hydrophobic constants were classified and discussed for results of the serveral studied cases. In addition, the processes of development of new agrochemicals by QSAR techniques were introduced simply.
