Freshwater sediment pesticide biodegradation potential as an ecological indicator of microbial recovery following a decrease in chronic pesticide exposure: A case study with the herbicide diuron

It is important to keep in mind that while harvesting costs are realized ex-post, the cost of pesticide is paid ex-ante and corresponds to the decision of how much to minimize the

The intensity of pesticide use was characterized by a synthetic indicator, the Treatment Frequency Indicator (TFI) (Equation 1).TFI was estimated from cropping system
