abstract
the extensive use of pesticides in agriculture is compromising soil and water quality. one major concern is protecting water resources from contamination. the main objective of this research was measuring 2,4- d in a silty clay soil and simulating temporal transportation of this herbicide in soil using a leachp model, in a corn root zone field. 2,4- d was applied at 3.5 kg a.i./ha, followed by two irrigation treatments in a completely randomized design with three replications. 2,4- d concentrations were measured during the growing season by obtaining soil samples from each plot through a 1 m depth. the measured data showed a temporal reduction of 2,4-d concentrations in the soil down to a maximum depth of 40 cm for both irrigation treatments. total concentration of 2,4 -d in the soil profile 8, 13, 23, 30, 37, and 57 days after application for normal irrigation were 18.5, 16.36, 11.67, 10.47, 8.47 and 3.2 mg kg 1, respectively and deficit irrigation showed 20.2, 16.7, 11.22, 10.05, 8.8 and 7.3 mg kg 1, respectively for the same dates and soil depth. according to our study region, the half life of 2,4- d for 0 10 cm and 10 20 cm of soil depths in a normal irrigation level were 7 and 33 days and in a deficit irrigation level were 9 and 34.65 days, respectively. the statistical parameters including rmse, crm and d were used to compare simulated with measured data. these parameters were 0.67, 0.5 and 0.87 for normal irrigation and 0.8, 0.61 and 0.88 for deficit irrigation. the leachp model simulations were in agreement with actual observations.

ABSTRACT- Despite the benefits of herbicides, their persistence in soil can harm other plants in next rotations and contaminate ground water. The main purpose of this research is to simulate 2,4-dichlorophenoxyaceticacid(2,4-D) movement in silty clay loam soil using HYDRUS-1D model in a corn root zone. The maximum contaminant level goal, MCLG, of 2,4-D in water resources is 10 ppb. The 3.5 kg a...

Evaluation of pollutant transportation in soil is important from different environmental aspects such as soil and groundwater contamination. The purpose of this study is to measure 2, 4-D concentrations in a silty loam soil under two different treatments (normal and deficit irrigation) in a corn field and simulate the results using the PRZM-3 and LEACHP models. Total concentrations of 2, 4-D in...

An improved genetic algorithm was applied and examined to optimize the weights of a neural network model for estimating root length density (RLD) distributions of winter wheat under salinity stress. Thereafter, soil water and solute transport with root-water-uptake in a soil-wheat system were simulated numerically, in which the estimated RLD distributions were incorporated. The results showed t...
full textSoil water, soil chemical and crop variations in a clay soil
Spatial properties of field soils vary in a complex manner. Especially in arid and semiarid areas, this variability affects plant quality and crop production. An experimental field plot was extensively sampled regarding soil water (378 gravimetrical samples), soil chemical content (314 samples), and crop yield and chemical content (26 samples) at the Cherfech agricultural field research station...
