e0“continuous spraying of herbicides repeatedly in succession and in combination necessitates long-term monitoring to assess the potential development of herbicide-resistant weeds, the bio-magnification of residues in soil, their transfer to tomato fruits and the impact on the food chain”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Herbicides significantly reduced weed density and dry biomass relative to control.
- Intervention effect Herbicides significantly enhanced weed control efficiency relative to control.
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin and metribuzin following glyphosate produced significantly higher weed control efficiency of 80–91%.
- Intervention effect The same spray sequence produced significantly higher fruit yield of 88.47 t/ha.
- Intervention effect Tomato quality parameters were unaffected by herbicides.
- Observation Fruit terminal residues were below stated safe limits for glyphosate.
- Observation Fruit terminal residues were below stated safe limits for pendimethalin and metribuzin.
- Observation Bioassay and instrumental techniques found no residual carryover toxicity.
