Persistence and carryover effect of oxyfluorfen residues in red sandy clay loam soil
A Field experiments were conducted for two years at Agricultural Research Station, Bhavanisagar of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, India during kharif season of 2010 and 2011 to evaluate the new formulation of oxyfluorfen (23.5% EC) on weed control in onion and their residual effect on succeeding crops. Herbicides are being chemical in nature, excessive and repeated use may pose...
متن کاملGas entrapment and microbial N2O reduction reduce N2O emissions from a biochar-amended sandy clay loam soil
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas that is produced during microbial nitrogen transformation processes such as nitrification and denitrification. Soils represent the largest sources of N2O emissions with nitrogen fertilizer application being the main driver of rising atmospheric N2O concentrations. Soil biochar amendment has been proposed as a promising tool to mitigate N2O emission...
متن کاملInfluence of tebuconazole and copper hydroxide on phosphatase and urease activities in red sandy loam and black clay soils.
The efficacy of two selected fungicides i.e., tebuconazole and coppoer hydroxide, was conducted experiments in laboratory and copper hydroxide on the two specific enzymes phosphatase and urease were determined in two different soil samples (red sandy loam and black clay soils) of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) from cultivated fields of Anantapuramu District, Andhra Pradesh. The activities of t...
متن کاملEffect of temperature on consecutive denitrification reactions in brookston clay and fox sandy loam.
The kinetics of several steps in the microbial denitrification process in Brookston clay and Fox sandy loam, two soils common to Southwestern Ontario, were studied in the temperature range of 5 to 25 degrees C. The extent of chemical denitrification was also determined in otherwise identical but sterilized soils at temperatures up to 80 degrees C. A gas flow system was used in which soil gases ...
متن کاملRespirable dust and quartz exposure from three South African farms with sandy, sandy loam, and clay soils.
OBJECTIVES To quantify personal time-weighted average respirable dust and quartz exposure on a sandy, a sandy loam, and a clay soil farm in the Free State and North West provinces of South Africa and to ascertain whether soil type is a determinant of exposure to respirable quartz. METHODS Three farms, located in the Free State and North West provinces of South Africa, had their soil type conf...
