Introduction: is a systemic post-emergence herbicide that is rapidly absorbed and readily translocated from treated foliage to the roots and growing plant parts.
Clethodim has good resistance to low temperature performance, weeding effect is obvious.
Mode of Action: Clethodim is a lipid (fatty acid) inhibitor. Plant lipids (fats) are vital to the integrity of cell membranes and to new plant growth. Broadleaf plants are tolerant to this Herbicide family, but a wide range of perennial and annual grasses are susceptible.
Clethodim 24% EC Application: Clethodim is used for post-emergence control of annual and perennial grasses, in a wide range of broad leaved field crops (including flax, sunflowers, seedling alfalfa, oilseed rape, sugar beet, and potatoes), depending on product label.
Clethodim has good resistance to low temperature performance, weeding effect is obvious.
How long Clethodim 24% EC takes/Expected Results: Clethodim is taken up by the foliage and moves in the phloem to areas of new growth. Clethodim penetrates the cuticle within 1 hr of application. Injury symptoms are slow to develop (seven to 10 days) and appear first on new leaves emerging from the whorl of the grass plant. Susceptible grasses that are actively growing will undergo burnback and a colour change (greenyellow- purple-brown) after treatment. Complete control requires 7 to 21 days, depending on growing conditions and crop competition.
