The aim of this research was to validate the MACRO-DB previsional model for pesticide dispersion in soil and groundwater in a particular scenario of Central Italy (Latina, Lazio). The pesticide used for validation was Lenacil, the soil was a Vertic Haplustept and the crop was spinach. The comparison between the experimental and simulated data demonstrated the validity of the MACRO-DB model, which correctly predicted both the Lenacil concentration through the soil profile and in the drainage water.

Abstract

The aim of this research was to validate the MACRO-DB previsional model for pesticide dispersion in soil and groundwater in a particular scenario of Central Italy (Latina, Lazio). The pesticide used for validation was Lenacil, the soil was a Vertic Haplustept and the crop was spinach. The comparison between the experimental and simulated data demonstrated the validity of the MACRO-DB model, which correctly predicted both the Lenacil concentration through the soil profile and in the drainage water.
