Five different soils varying in physico-chemical properties were used for studying the persistence and degradation of carboxin and oxycarboxin. In one soil only both fungicides were degraded with accumulation of ammonium and nitrite. Under the conditions of forced circulation of air and continuous perfusion, oxycarboxin was found to be more susceptible to degradation than carboxin. Under simulated conditions of rice fields, conversion of carboxin to its sulphoxide and to a non-toxic derivative of oxycarboxin could only be seen in all the soils. The role of clay, humus and organic matter as protectants of fungicides against degradation indicated that the intermediary compound carboxin sulphoxide was strongly adsorbed probably on organic and inorganic colloids of most of the soils. Organic matter free soils delayed the degradation. Carboxin was rapidly converted to its sulphoxide on three forms of monoionic clays whereas oxycarboxin was transformed to an unidentified derivative.
