Objectives: The study aimed persistence of herbicides through bioassay technique and to determine residual phytoxicity of different herbicides on succeeding summer crops.
Methods: In this study, pot studies and evaluating herbicides residue in soil condition. The post-harvest soil samples from the selected treatments were collected and used for bioassay studies. The collected soil samples of 1-kg soil were filled in clean plastic pots according to the treatments. Another pot culture experiment was conducted with the same soil from the surrounding area of the farm which was never treated with any herbicides.
Results: Residues of herbicides in the post-harvest soil were worked out from the bioassay of sorghum and cucumber. In propaquizafop 0.050 kg/ha POE at 45 DAS application showed an average of more herbicide residues and pendimethalin 0.900 kg/ha PE and oxyfluorfen 0.180 kg/ha PE found an average less herbicide residues in the post-harvest soil.
Conclusion: All the herbicides were found non-detectable level herbicides residue in the post-harvest soil at germination percentage, plant height, and dry matter production of sorghum and cucumber during both years. Residues by this method for pendimethalin, oxyfluorfen, oxadiargyl, quizalofop-ethyl, imazethapyr, and propaquizafop were non-detectable level (NDL) for all the herbicides.
