Extract

The rate of disappearance of a herbicide from soil is one of the key properties in determining its utility. In some cases it is desirable that a selected herbicidal concentration be maintained in the soil as long as possible. In other cases, rapid dissipation is desirable after a given effect has been produced. Leaching is a primary factor in the removal of many herbicides from soil.
