- Abstract
The article presents a study which examines the behavior of the herbicide clomazone in the soil environment using model rice and forest soils in California. It highlights the greater absorption of clomazole to the major organic matter fraction of soil, humic acid, than to whole soils. It further asserts the significant role of clomazone in the increased isotherm linearity found in the humic acid. The study concludes that clomatozole absorbs in humic acid more appreciably than in sandy or clay soils.
