Abstract/Contents: | "Pesticide leaching in golf greens should be avoided to prevent groundwater contamination and, in fact, leaching of most organophosphorous (OP) insecticides is greatly reduced because of adsorption by the thatch layer. However, appreciable leaching of the OP fenamiphos and its metabolites has been observed. After trying several management practices for reducing pesticide leaching, with little success, our interest in reducing leaching of fenamiphos and fenamiphos metabolites in golf greens led to the development and testing of an adsorbent that could be incorporated into a United States Golf Association (USGA) specification root zone mix without altering the particle size specifications for golf green construction. A cross-linked phenolic polyether (CPP) (patent-pending) was coated on sand meeting USGA specifications for golf green root zones, and mixed at 20% by volume into the lower 10 cm of the soil profile in lysimeters installed in a USGA green. Leaching of fenamiphos and fenamiphos metabolites was measured following three applications of fenamiphos over a 27-month period. Fenamiphos leaching was largely arrested by the CPP-coated sand, and metabolites leaching was greatly reduced as well. This was especially true shortly after fenamiphos application. However, with time small amounts of metabolites were detected in percolate, apparently as a result of desorption from the CPP. It appears that the CPP-coated sand could be a useful inclusion in USGA greens for reducing fenamiphos and fenamiphos metabolites leaching." |
