INFLUENCE OF ATRAZINE ON SOIL MICROARTHROPOD FAUNA, AND THE PERFORMANCE OF MAIZE (ZEA MAYS L.) IN A HUMID TROPICAL ENVIRONMENT.

INFLUENCE OF ATRAZINE ON SOIL MICROARTHROPOD FAUNA, AND THE PERFORMANCE OF MAIZE (ZEA MAYS L.) IN A HUMID TROPICAL ENVIRONMENT.

The influence of atrazine on soil microarthropods, and the growth and yield of maize during the late and early seasons of a humid tropical environment were invested. Soil microarthropod populations were found to be extremely low in the maze plots where atrazine had been used to control weeds when co...
