Dissipation of fentrazamide in soil and water under flooded (anaerobic) conditions was studied. Fentrazamide was applied to soil at 100 g ha(-1). Soil was extracted with 0.1 N HCl : acetone (1 : 1 v/v) followed by partition and cleanup with silica SPE. Separation was achieved in an ODS-II column with a mobile phase of acetonitrile : water (70 : 30 v/v) and detection at 214 nm. Recovery of fentrazamide varied from 75.2-90.4% and 89.9-97.8% in soil and water, respectively. Fentrazamide dissipated rapidly and fentrazamide residues were not detected after 100 and 35 days of application in soil and water, respectively. Half life in soil and water was 9.06 and 3.66 days, respectively. Dissipation followed monophasic first order kinetics pattern. No fentrazamide was detected in soil, rice grain and rice straw at harvest of crop. Calibration curves for quantification were linear and relative standard deviation (RSD) was 1.78%. LOD for instrument was 0.002 μg mL(-1) and LOQ for methods were 0.005 μg g(-1) for soil and water.

This article evaluates the prospects for rainwater harvesting (RWH) as a means of optimizing water management in the Mandara Mountains. RWH is a small-scale water conservation approach for locally intercepting and storing rainfall before it enters the usual hydrologic cycle. This ancient practice has recently sustained lives in semiarid areas of the world (e.

In this study, the improvement effect of different organic substances on compacted cohesive soil in southern Xinjiang was discussed, with emphasis on the influence of different organic substances on soil chemical properties and microorganisms, so as to determine the best carbon source input and provide theoretical support for the rational utilization of organic materials in southern Xinjiang. Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of farm fertilizer, biochar, commercial organic fertilizer, microbial fertilizer and mineral potassium humate on physical and chemical properties of viscous soil, agronomic properties and yield of cotton, with three gradients for each organic fertilizer. The results showed that: (1) all organic fertilizers improved soil structure, among which farm fertilizer significantly reduced soil bulk density and salinity, increased soil organic matter, total nitrogen and available nutrients, and thus increased cotton height, stem diameter and yield.

An integrated understanding of dissolved phosphorous (DP) export mechanism and controls on export over dry and wet periods is crucial for riverine ecological restorations in dammed river basins considering its high bioavailability and retention rates at dams. Riverine DP transport patterns (composition, sources, and transport pathways), export controls, and fate were investigated over the 2020 wet season (5 events) and dry seasons before and after it (2 events: dry and dry) in a semi-arid, small-dammed watershed to comprehend the links between terrestrial DP sources and aquatic DP sinks. Close spatiotemporal monitoring of the full range of phosphorous and total suspended solids (TSSs) and subsequent analyses (hysteresis, hierarchical partitioning, and coefficient of variation) provided the basis for the study.

Background: Sycamore tree-derived hypoglycin A (HGA) toxin causes atypical myopathy (AM), an acute, equine pasture-associated rhabdomyolysis but incidence fluctuates.
Objectives: Investigate whether tree or environmental factors influence HGA concentration in sycamore material and are associated with AM relative risk.
Study Design: Retrospective and experimental prospective study.
