Titel
Distribution of drifted substances in vegetation
Abstract
Outdoor experiments in field crops, vine cultures and orchards were performed according to good agricultural practice assessing the pesticide exposure of non-target plants. It was demonstrated that not only direct spray drift during the application, but also the atmospherie drift of vaporized pesticides from target plants and soil in the post-application phases eaused pestieide contarnination in neighbouring ecotones. Particularly sernivolatile pesticides like, fenpropimorph, vinelozolin and pyrimethanil occurred in the non-target plants in concentrations exceeding 10% of the concentrations measured in the target plants.
