Extract

In Part I of the present study, the effects of amount, intensity, and frequency of simulated rainfall on the distribution of monuron [3–(p–chlorophenyl)–1,1–dimethylurea] in Lakeland sand soil were studied (9). Part I also indicated the general importance of leaching in herbicide usage. The present study includes consideration of soil temperature, soil organic matter, soil moisture content, and amount of herbicidal application as they influence monuron distribution.
