Abstract

Field research was conducted in 1994 and 1995 to monitor the dissipation of flumetsulam in five Mississippi soils for a period of 16 wk. These soils allowed evaluation of flumetsulam persistence across three soil series with a relatively constant soil pH of 6.0, as well as across three soils of varied pH from 6.0 to 7.6 within a constant soil series. Bioavailability was determined with a rice root length bioassay. Predicted half-lives ranged from 20 to 26 d in 1994 and from 23 to 46 d in 1995. Persistence decreased with increasing cumulative rainfall and decreasing organic matter content (within a range of 1.2 to 3.5%). Soil pH had no measurable effect on flumetsulam persistence.
