Environmental Fate Terrestrial Fate: Half-life in damp soil about 12 hours. TRIAZINES ARE NOT READILY DEGRADED BY SOIL MICROORGANISMS. THUS, THEIR RATE OF DECAY IS RELATIVELY SLOW, & AS THESE MATERIALS ALSO DO NOT READILY LEACH FROM THE SOIL, THEY MAY PERSIST FOR QUITE EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. TRIAZINES Terrestrial Fate: Atrazine, propazine, and simazine residues in Romanian soil, under different soil and climate conditions, as an effect of pitezin administration were studied. Under Romanian climatic conditions, propazine is more persistent in soil than atrazine. Atrazine, propazine, and simazine
