A zero-valent iron and organic matter mixture enhances herbicide and herbicide degradation product removal in subsurface waters [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2017 The pesticide atrazine, its degradation products, and 2,6-dichlorobenzamide (BAM) are persistent in groundwater environment. We studied whether their dissipation can be enhanced with a mixture of a complex carbon source and zero-valent iron (ZVI) called EHC®.

An Evaluation of Herbicides for Broadleaf-Weed Control in Rapeseed: Efficacy, Phytotoxicity, and Soil Persistence Studies [PDF]
, 1984 At the recommended rates (1.0 lb/A for trifluralin, ethalfluralin, EL5261; 0.75 lb/A for dinitramine; 1.2 lb/A for nitrofen), none of the herbicides we evaluated in these studies reduced rapeseed stands, yields, or test weights. However, at higher rates (

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Post‐harvest agricultural residues in Latin America are commonly underutilized, leading to greenhouse gas emissions and lost opportunities for bio‐based value creation. This study tests the hypothesis that decentralized, farmer‐scale pyrolysis technologies can deliver comparable agronomic benefits while exhibiting distinct techno‐economic and ...

Longitudinal Study of Thyroid Hormones between Conventional and Organic Farmers in Thailand
Toxics, 2020 Many pesticides are endocrine-disrupting chemicals that can interfere with hormone levels. This study aimed to assess the longitudinal impact of exposure to pesticides on thyroid hormone levels, including Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Free ...

Weeds and crop yields under conservation tillage in organic farming. [PDF]
, 2010 Conservation tillage in conventional agriculture tends to make the cropping systems more dependent on herbicides. Organic farming principles could solve this problem. However, direct drilling under a cover crop in organic farming remains difficult.

Preemergence Herbicides for Radishes Grown on Organic Soils
HortScience, 1986 Abstract Three studies were conducted to evaluate preemergence herbicides for weed control efficacy and crop tolerance in radishes (Raphanus sativus L.) grown on organic soils. Herbicides evaluated were CDEC, metolachlor, alachlor, pendimethalin, thiobencarb, propachlor, metribuzin, and pronamide.
