Dissipation and Residue of Cyprodinil in Strawberry and Soil

The dissipation of cyprodinil under field and greenhouse condition in China was investigated. The pesticide cyprodinil dissipation differed under different cultivate conditions, the half lives were 14.5 and 12.5 days in strawberry and soil, respectively, under the field condition, 5.5 and 6.5 days, respectively, under greenhouse. The results showed that the dissipation rate under greenhouse condition was much faster than under field condition either in strawberry or soil. The terminal residues in strawberries were below the EU maximum residue level (5 mg/kg) after 7 days of application. This study will give a suggestion for the reasonable use of cyprodinil under different cultivate conditions and can also provide reference to set MRL value in strawberry in China.
