Abstract: This webinar will focus on the first documented occurrence of nitrapyrin in Midwest streams and subsequent studies that documented repeated occurrence in streams, subsurface drains, and agricultural soils. Nitrification inhibitors like nitrapyrin have known agronomic benefits. This webinar will highlight these benefits as well as considerations for ecosystem and environmental health.
