Abstract:Developing a method for estimating
the pesticide concentrations
taken up by crops based on their concentrations in soils can be used
to prevent contamination of succeeding crops by pesticide residues.
To determine the soil sampling depth needed in the field, we investigated
the relationship between vertical distributions of pesticides, including
four neonicotinoids, in 0–30 cm deep soil and pesticide concentrations
in a leafy vegetable (komatsuna, Brassica rapa L.
var. peruviridis). Pesticide concentrations in… Show more
