Mobility of cyanthraniliprole, paclobutrazol and metribuzin was investigated on large lysimeters of the Experimental Soil Station of Moscow State University . Pesticides were applied in recommended and tenfold rates for cyantraniliprole and paclobuyrazol and recommended and eightfold rates for metribuzin. All three pesticides were detected in leachate. Cyantraniliprole was detected in most water samples analyzed. The maximum concentrations of cyanthraniliprole in the leachate were 2.6 and 12.5 µg L−1 in lysimeters with recommended and tenfold rates, respectively. Paclobutrazol was found 3 and 7 times during the year after application in the lysimeter with recommended and increased rates in concentrations up to 26 μg L−1. Used in accordance with the regulation, metribuzin in leachate was detected once, in eightfold rate - 73% of water samples; maximum concentration was 180 µg L−1. The migration risk into groundwater of all three studied pesticides is assessed as high, risk for people as low, risk for aquatic organisms as high. Risk and danger assessment based on simulation with model PEARL and mobility indexes showed high agreement with the assessment according to the experiment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
