This article presents original geospatial data on soil adsorptioncoefficient (Kd) for two widely used herbicides in agriculture,glyphosate and atrazine. Besides Kds, the dataset includes site-specific soil data: pH, total nitrogen, total organic carbon, Na, K,Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn, Cu, cation exchange capacity, percentage of sand,silt and clay, water holding capacity, aluminum and iron oxides, aswell as climatic and topographic variables. The quantification ofherbicides soil retention was made on a sample of soils selected byConditionated Latin Hypercube method to capture the underlyingedaphoclimatic variability in Cordoba, Argentina. The glyphosatedata presented here has been used to evaluate statistical methodsfor model-based digital mapping (F. Giannini Kurina, S. Hang, R.Macchiavelli, M. Balzarini, 2019) [1]. The dataset is made publiclyavailable to enable future analyzes on processes that leads thedynamics of both herbicides in soil
