Laboratory studies were conducted to determine the relative sorption, mobility, and degradation rates of triclopyr and 2,4-D on two surface soils and two subsoils from the rice-producing areas of Arkansas. Triclopyr sorption was slightly greater than 2,4-D sorption. However, mobility of the herbicides on a given soil did not differ. Sorption of both herbicides was greatest and mobility lowest on a subsoil with the lowest pH. Triclopyr degradation rates were lower than 2,4-D degradation rates in a dark incubator. The average half life was 138 d for triclopyr and 21 d for 2,4-D. High soil moisture content (0 versus 100 kPa water tension) increased the rate of 2,4-D degradation. Triclopyr degraded more rapidly at 30 C than at 15 C. The dissipation rates of both herbicides were lowest on the soil on which sorption was greatest.
