Soil-parathion surface interactions

  • Conference paper
Book cover Residue Reviews

Abstract

There are three groups of factors which are considered in soil-pesticides interaction studies: the properties of pesticides, the properties of the soil, and the environmental factors which may affect these interactions. As is generally known, the soil is a very complex and nonhomogeneous medium and the soil environment is determined by climatic conditions and agricultural technology. Soil-pesticides interactions are, therefore, complex processes governed not only by each of the mentioned groups of factors but also by the integrated effects and interrelations.
