No, a lawn that is located next to organic crops cannot be sprayed with pesticides. To be in compliance with organic certification guidelines and inspections, pest control must be animal- or plant-derived, such as pyrethrin from Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium, and therefore tends to involve botanicals, horticultural oils and insecticidal soaps. There tends to be a concern over drift since even the slightest breeze can carry pesticide drops and particles away from the target area.
