Research abstract
Agricultural relies on fumigants as a pre-plant treatment. The continued availability of agricultural fumigants will require sound environmental management of off-gassing. The commercialization of research on enhanced sealing practice is needed to mitigate off-gassing consistent with cultural practice. The purpose of this research will be to commercialize the enhanced fumigant sealing method referred to as intermittent water sealing. The goal is to reduce the scope and extent of the implementatio of this method in order to meet better meet commercial needs.
