Characterization Of Alachlor And Atrazine Desorption From Soils, Sharon A. Clay, William C. Koskinen Jan 1990

Characterization Of Alachlor And Atrazine Desorption From Soils, Sharon A. Clay, William C. Koskinen

Agronomy, Horticulture and Plant Science Faculty Publications

Herbicide desorption isotherms may be affected by the amount of nondesorbable herbicide present in soil. Nondesorbable alachlor (as determined after methanol extraction) generally increased on a Waukegan silt loam (Typic Hapludolls) and a Ves clay loam (Udic Haplustolls) during five 0.01 M CaCl₂ desorptions. Atrazine was totally extracted with methanol from the Waukegan soil after one desorption using 0.01 M CaCl₂. However, after five desorptions with 0.01 M CaCl₂ an average of 5.5 and 15.5% of the total recovered atrazine from two atrazine application rates was methanol nondesorbable from the Waukegan and Ves soils, respectively. Freundlich desorption isotherms adjusted for …
