Abstract/Contents:"The general public is concerned about potential environmental impacts of agrichemicals applied to turfgrasses. Although frequently studied in general agriculture, there have been few investigations on the persistence and mobility of herbicides applied to turfgrasses, and especially to standard turfgrass systems such as the USGA green. Concern rests both with pesticide leaching in percolate waters and with removal in clippings. The mobility and persistence of the phenoxy-acid herbicides dicamba and 2,4-D were investigated in two studies conducted on a USGA green at the Ft. Lauderdale Research and Education Center that is outfitted with lysimeters for collecting percolate water. In each study, the herbicides were applied twice at one-week intervals at 58 and 6 mg a.i. mā»Ā² for 2,4-D and dicamba, respectively, followed the next day by 9 mm irrigation, and by subsequent irrigations to maintain soil moisture. Samples of thatch, soil, percolate water, and clippings were analysed for 2,4-D and dicamba. Although the dicamba application rate was only 10% that of 2,4-D, the recovery of these materials (expressed as mass) in percolate water was of the same order of magnitude, being approximately 10% of that applied for dicamba and 1% for 2,4-D. Detectable levels of both herbicides were observed in thatch and soil for several months. Very little (ā‰¤ 0.25%) was recovered in clippings."
