Abstract

Persistence of DDT was decreased by flooding and rice straw amendment with increased formation of DDD in several soils studied. The DDD formed decreased further over a period of time. Studies with 14CDDT also showed DDD as the major degradation product with DDE, DDOH, DBP, DDM and dicofol occuring in low amounts. Rice straw amendment decontaminated the DDT‐polluted soil to a considerable extent.
