Phytotoxic effects of preservative treated props for agricultural use

IRG/WP 3550

D Franco, M V Baonza Merino

The phytotoxic effect due to the use of wood treated with organic preservatives for agricultural purposes was studied. The assays were carried out on plants tutored with props of Pinus sylvestris treated with three different organic wood preservatives. Pre-assays were carried out to observe the reaction on the plants, spreading directly the preservative on different parts of the plant and to the substrate.
