CHEMICAL BIODEGRADABILITY

Woods End’s agrichemical fate and effects test process is designed to mimic and measure stages of biodegradation and potential accumulation such as through:

1. recycled organic matter (ROM) composting;
2. soil amending & carryover effect;
3. 2nd-life incorporation in growing media;
4. Depuration – passage through animals;
5. passage through anaerobic digesters.

The outcome of the evaluation includes but is not limited to : half-life kinetics, absence of plant symptomology; TC25 / TC50 bio-assay results. Firms and organizations that have used our studies include DowAgroSciences, DuPont, Syngenta and the USAEC, among others.
