Abstract: | Two sulfonylurea herbicides, metsulfuron methyl (Ally 20 WP) and chlorimuron ethyl (Classic 25 WP) were evaluated for their
dissipation behaviour in alluvial, coastal saline and laterite soils under laboratory incubated condition at 60% water holding
capacity of soils and 30 °C temperature was maintained. In field study herbicides were applied twice for the control of grasses,
annual and perennials broad leaves weeds and sedges in rice, wheat and soybean to find out the residual fate of both the herbicides
on different matrices of respective crops after harvest. Extraction and clean up methodologies for the herbicides were standardized
and subsequently analyzed by HPLC. The study revealed that the half-lives of metsulfuron methyl and chlorimuron ethyl ranged
from 10.75 to 13.94 d irrespective of soils and doses applied. Field trials with rice, wheat and soybean also revealed that
these two herbicides could safely be recommended for application as no residues were detected in the harvest samples. |
