Description Selective, post-emergence grass herbicide providing broad-spectrum control of annual grasses, with excellent selectivity on broadleaved crops such as winter oilseed rape and sugar beet. Highly effective against perennial and annual grasses including those resistant to ‘fops’. Active ingredient: 120 g/l clethodim Foliar and Systemic. After application the compound is rapidly absorbed by the treated plant parts and is readily translocated to the root system and to the aerial growing parts of the plant. Typical symptoms on susceptible grass weeds visible 1-2 weeks after application are stunting of growth and yellowing of leaves of the treated plants, followed by plant death. General application: Apply clethodim post-emergence to actively growing weeds before they are covered by the crop. Prior application of a graminicide (e.g. quizalofop-P-tefuryl) can improve grass control by first removing volunteers so the target weeds are more exposed where the Clethodim is applied. – Annual grasses: from 3 leaf to 2 tillers The product only acts on weeds that have emerged at the time of treatment. Only one application is authorised per crop and per year.
