Removal of Endosulfan Sulfate from Soil by SinglePlant CultivationThe percentages of endosulfan sulfate remaining in soils
cultivated with individual plants are shown in Table 4.In general, the amount of endosulfan sulfate in the
(about 50.6 %) was also seen on day 60 in the rhizosphere of cowpea when this plant was grown together
with cucumber. As with single plant cultivation, greater amount of endosulfan sulfate was removed in the
rhizospheric soil than bulk soil in mixed plant pots. On day 60, the highest removal of endosulfan sulfate from
the bulk soil was seen in pots containing sweet corn and cowpea (44 % removal), followed by sweet corn and
cucumber (36.8 % removal), and then cucumber and cowpea (20 %) (Table 4).
