Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Trifluralin had linear sorption isotherms on the studied soils.
- Method / resource A biexponential kinetic model fit trifluralin and dinitramine soil losses better in about half of cases.
- Association Model parameters had no detected relationship to environmental or soil properties.
- Observation Soil losses were generally greater at field capacity than at 50% field capacity.
- Observation Soil losses were greater at 27°C than at 15°C.
- Association Higher trifluralin application rates correlated negatively with cotton vegetative growth parameters.
- Association The negative relationship between trifluralin rate and cotton vegetative growth weakened as soil organic carbon increased.
- Intervention effect Trifluralin delayed cotton boll production in coarse soils, most at higher rates.
- Recommendation The authors recommend minimum trifluralin rates sufficient for weed control in light low-organic-matter soils to avoid crop damage.
