Acrylamide monomer leaching from Polyacrylamide-treated irrigation furrows
Water-soluble anionic polyacrylamide (WSPAM), which is used to reduce erosion in furrow irrigated fields and other agriculture applications, contains less than 0.05% acrylamide monomer (AMD). Acrylamide monomer, a potent neurotoxicant and suspected carcinogen, is readily dissolved and transported in flowing water. The study quantified AMD leaching losses from a WSPAM-treated corn (Zea mays L.) ...

Urban and agricultural pesticide inputs to a critical habitat for the threatened delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus)
The Cache Slough complex is an area of tidal sloughs in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Delta of California, and is surrounding by irrigated agricultural lands. Among the species of concern in the area is the delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), a federally‐listed threatened species. Releases of the organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos and pyrethroid insecticides were examined to ...

Estimating ground cover of field crops using medium-resolution multispectral satellite imagery
Remote sensing is useful for estimating plant canopy characteristics, such as leaf area index (LAI) and ground cover (GC). When the source of remote sensing data is medium-resolution satellite imagery, plant canopy characteristics can be estimated for numerous fields within an agricultural region. In this study, a procedure was developed to estimate GC of field crops from medium-resolution ...

Impact of fly–ash–amended soil on growth and yield of crop plants
Fly Ash (FA), a waste product of thermal power stations, has great potential for use in agriculture, because it contains almost all macro as well as micronutrients. In view of the potential disposal problem of FA, this investigation was carried out to search an economical and eco–friendly solution of its disposal by using it as nutrient source in agriculture for growth of crop plants. FA ...
