Runoff loss of pesticides and soil: a comparison between vegetative mulch and plastic mulch in vegetable production systems.
Current vegetable production systems use polyethylene (plastic) mulch and require multiple applications of agrochemicals. During rain events, runoff from vegetable production is enhanced because 50 to 75% of the field is covered with an impervious surface. This study was conducted to quantify off-site movement of soil and pesticides with runoff from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plots ...
متن کاملSoil Temperature Under A Dormant Bermudagrass Mulch: Simulation And Measurement
The ENergy and WATer BALance (ENWATBAL) model is a mechanistic, numerical model that simulates soil water and temperature profiles, evaporation from soil, and transpiration from crops, but it does not simulate the effects of a mulch layer. Surface vegetative mulches are becoming more common, especially in reduced-tillage systems, limiting the model’s applicability. Our objective was to modify E...
متن کاملRunoff and soil erosion as affected by plastic mulch in a Hawaiian pineapple ®eld
The effects of plastic mulch in Hawaiian pineapple culture on runoff generation and soil erosion are poorly understood and not covered in the literature. Field rainfall simulation experiments were conducted on an Oxisol commonly used in Hawaii for pineapple production. Four treatments were no cover (hereafter called bare), plastic mulch as the sole cover (plastic), pineapple crowns as the sole ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Gravel Filters and Plastic Mulch Effects in Improving Soil Infiltration and Moisture Storage in Rainwater Harvesting Systems in Steep Lands
In this study, the possibility of using a combination of gravel filters with plastic cover to increase water infiltration and soil moisture storage in rainwater catchment systems was investigated. For this purpose, five treatments (with three replications) including control treatment, vegetation removal with filter, vegetation removal without filter, semi-insulated system with filter, an...
متن کاملUse of vegetative furrows to mitigate copper loads and soil loss in runoff from polyethylene (plastic) mulch vegetable production systems.
The transport of runoff with high copper concentrations and sediment loads into adjacent surface waters can have adverse effects on nontarget organisms as a result of increased turbidity and degraded water quality. Runoff from vegetable production utilizing polyethylene mulch can contain up to 35% of applied copper, a widely used fungicide/bactericide that has adverse effects on aquatic organis...
