Scientists were able to create a historical record of pesticide use in the region, and reconstruct erosion patterns seen over time. According to the study, the historical record lined up well with the restrictions and prohibitions on various pesticides that occurred over the years. That is, until the 1990s. Results show that increases in soil erosion line up with an influx of DDT into the lake. But the increase in soil erosion also lined up with the introduction and increase use of post-emergent herbicides such as glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, in the 1990s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnalysis of changes in the rate of sediment influx into the lake between 1900 and 2011 suggested a link between soil erosion and patterns of herbicide treatment,\u201d lead author Pierre Sabatier, PhD, of the Universit\u00e9 de Savoie, France, told the news site <em><a href=\"http:\/\/environmentalresearchweb.org\/cws\/article\/news\/59014\">environmentalresearchweb<\/a>.<\/em> \u201cFor example, glyphosate, used widely to curb grass growth between vine rows since the 1990s, was detected, through its metabolite, in a sediment sample over the last 20 years. Further, this herbicide-induced erosion has re-mobilized DDT and its metabolites \u2014 banned in 1972 but lingering in the vineyard soil \u2014 into the lake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The researchers reasoned that erosion was occurring because of the permanently bare soil conditions created by frequent herbicide spraying. \u201cThe soils underwent a change in storage conditions, converting from sinks to sources of pesticides,\u201d the study asserts.<\/p>\n<p>The discovery of this new externality associated with conventional farming strengthens calls from proponents of organic agriculture to replace toxic chemicals with practices that work with nature and build natural pest resiliency <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/?p=12219\">from the soil up<\/a>. Included within the <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ams.usda.gov\/AMSv1.0\/getfile?dDocName=STELPRDC5060370\">Organic Foods Production Act is the requirement<\/a><\/em> that organic farming systems \u201ccontain provisions designed to foster soil fertility, primarily through the management of the organic content of the soil through proper tillage, crop rotation, and manuring.\u201d Previous studies have shown that instituting organic practices does create healthier soils than conventional techniques. A paper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/?p=4191\">published in 2010<\/a> found that organic strawberry farming resulted in both healthier soils and higher quality fruit. Research from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ars.usda.gov\/is\/AR\/archive\/jul07\/soil0707.htm\">U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Agricultural Research Service<\/a> determined that organic farming builds soil organic matter better than no-till conventional techniques that rely on chemical herbicide inputs.<\/p>\n<p>As organic agriculture continues to grow, it is important that consumers become active in defending the integrity of organic production, so that harmful practices which undermine healthy soil are never instituted.

Beyond Pesticides provides hands-on services to the public and supports local action by: identifying and interpreting hazards; and, designing safe pest management programs. With the information provided by Beyond Pesticides, people may not only be able to make informed choices and adopt practices that protect themselves and their families from unnecessary exposure to pesticides, but they will be able to effect changes on community-wide pest management decisions and policies that govern pesticide use, such as pesticide uses in parks, schools, for community insect control and along roadsides. Beyond Pesticides believes that people must have a voice in decisions which affect them directly.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.beyondpesticides.org","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/beyondpesticides\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/beyondpesticides\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/beyond-pesticides\/","https:\/\/x.com\/ByondPesticides","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/bpncamp\/"],"url":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/author\/beyond-pesticides\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14465","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14465"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14465\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14472,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14465\/revisions\/14472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14465"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14465"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14465"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
