Abstract
Rice and wheat are the main crops of the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh. Butachlor and 2,4-D are the two herbicides, which are very popular among rice growers. Studies on the estimation of herbicide residues present in the soil of rice and wheat grown in sequence were undertaken through bioassay technique. Results revealed that butachlor 1.5 kg/ha pre-emergence applied in rice did not leave its residue in the soil of rice after harvest. Isoproturon 1.0 kg + 2,4-D sodium salt 0.5 kg/ha at 30–35 days of sowing wheat also did not leave residue in the soil. In another long-term trial in rice-chickpea cropping system, butachlor 1.5 kg/ha pre-emergence and anilofos 0.5 kg/ha pre-emergence applied in rice did not leave their residue in the soil of rice.
