Abstract/Contents: | "Public concern about pesticide usage most often centers on unwanted exposures that could affect mammalian health and the preservation of terrestrial and aquatic ecological resources. The fate of a pesticide is driven by the interaction of mobility and persistence factors present in the environment as well as the chemical properties of the pesticide itself. In plant-based systems, pesticide movement is also depended on the way in which the system is managed. Perennial plant communities, such as turfgrass, can dramatically reduce the persistence and mobility of many pesticides when paired with the use of management practices that enhance the retention of pesticides within the organically rich zone that exist near the soil surface in these plant communities. The ongoing development and registration of reduced risk pesticides, together with more stringent restrictions placed on the use of reregistered pesticides has reduced the ecological risks associated with the use of these pesticides. Similarly, the inclusion of multiple avenues of exposure in the assessment of human risks associated with pesticide use, mandated by the 1996 Food Quality Protection Act, has resulted in the loss of some pesticides for use on turfgrass." |
