| Abstract/Contents: | "The fate of organic pesticides applied to turf is reviewed with emphasis on the extent by which it is influenced by the physical and chemical properties of the compound. Mechanisms of pesticide loss through volatilization, runoff, and leaching are discussed in the context of features unique to the turf-soil environment. Environmental and human risks associated with pesticide use on turf are also considered as are management strategies designed to minimize such risks. The discussion centers around articles from the January/February 1995 issue of the USGA Green Section Record." |
