Abstract
Use of arsenicals for insect control has resulted in an appreciable accumulation of arsenic in the surface soil of Annapolis Valley apple orchards. Levels of total arsenic in 25 representative orchards ranged from 9.8 to 124.4 p.p.m., whereas the content of comparable samples taken in non-orchard land ranged from a trace to 7.9 p.p.m. In some orchards the arsenic accumulation is of sufficient magnitude to be detrimental to the growth of such arsenic sensitive crops as peas and beans.
