The fate of 2,4-D [(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid] in the soil under winter wheat (Triticum aestivumL. ‘Nugaines’) and fallow cropping schemes was studied under the field conditions of eastern Washington in 1973 and 1974 using formulated dimethylamine salt and isooctyl ester of 2,4-D. Soil samples taken 1 hour after herbicide application showed that amine-treated plots retained considerably more applied 2,4-D than ester-treated plots. The rapidity of 2,4-D breakdown decreased gradually with time, and at the end of 6 months, an average of 0.04 ppm of 2,4-D remained in the sampled soil profile regardless of formulation, application rate, or cropping scheme. Loss of 2,4-D from the soil surface in runoff occurred when the plots were irrigated heavily one day after the herbicide application. The herbicide was also leached into the soil profile by both irrigation and natural precipitation. Herbicide concentrations in the sampled portion of the upper soil profile decreased during the summer and then increased slightly in the fall.

Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of Sea Crop (SC 16) and Ergostim on the yield and nutrient composition of a few crops. Studies conducted under greenhouse and field conditions showed that the yields of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and peas (Pisum sativum L.) were not affected by the addition of SC16. The nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) concentrations of the two crops were not affected by SC 16, except in the control and SC 16 treatment only where the increases were likely due to a concentration effect, since these two treatments had lower yields. Boron (B) and molybdenum (Mo) concentrations in the plants were significantly affected by B and Mo applications, but not by SC 16. A greenhouse study showed that the yields of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and wheat were not affected by the addition of Ergostim. The addition of Ergostim did not affect the N or S concentration of wheat or three cuts of alfalfa.
