Summary The rates of dissipation of Landrin from nonsterile soils were primarily dependent upon the soil type. The persistence half-lives of the Landrin applied ranged from 〈4 to 〉40 days in the 8 soils investigated. Rates of breakdown increased with increasing soil pH (above pH 7), indicating alkaline hydrolysis as the major cause of Landrin degradation; destructive microorganisms were also involved, however. Soil organic matter did not seem to be a major factor in Landrin degradation.
