Description:
Clethodim is reported by R. T. Kincade et al. (Proc. 1987 Br. Crop Prot. Conf. - Weeds, 1, 49).
Introduced by Chevron Chemical Co.. It is a selective post-emergence herbicide used to contr
ol annual and perennial grasses in a wide variety of broad leaf crops including soybeans, cott
on, flax, peanuts, sunflowers, sugarbeets, potatoes, alfalfa and most vegetables. It is availabl
e in both the technical form and an emulsifiable concentrate. Unless otherwise stated, data pr
esented herein refer to the technical product.
Clethodim has shown antagonism when used with Basagran (bentazon) or Blazer (acifluorfen-s
odium) , and should be used with a non-phytotoxic crop oil concentrate . Clethodim is very well-
tolerated by broad-leaved crops, showing little if any phytotoxic effect. Formulations of clethodim
may include trimethylbenzene, xylenes, cumene and emulsifier as inert ingredients.
