Efficient Weed Control with ClomazoneClomazone delivers selective, pre-emergent weed management by acting on the shoots of emerging weeds. Suitable for rice, soybean, tobacco, and vegetables, it interrupts carotenoid synthesis, ensuring healthier crop growth and higher yields. Clomazone works effectively through foliar spray or soil application, offering broad-spectrum compatibility with other agrochemicals.
Product Features and SafetyThis herbicide is sold as a technical grade liquid with a purity of at least 95%. Packaged in durable HDPE containers, Clomazone maintains its effectiveness for up to two years when stored correctly. Users should avoid skin and eye contact and take note of its characteristic aromatic odor. With its moderate toxicity and flash point above 93C, safety measures should be observed during handling.
Regulatory and Application InformationClomazone is registered under CIB&RC in India, guaranteeing compliance with local agricultural standards. Its application as a pre-emergent herbicide is optimal before weed germination. The products stable formulation, low ash and moisture content, and compatibility with most herbicides enhance its practical value across various farming systems.
FAQs of Clomazone:
Q: How should Clomazone be stored to maintain its shelf life?
A: Clomazone should be kept in its original, unopened HDPE container within a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. This ensures the herbicide retains its quality and effectiveness for up to two years from the date of manufacture.
Q: What is the recommended application method for Clomazone?
A: Clomazone is mainly applied as a foliar spray or soil treatment before weed emergence. Pre-emergent use is essential for optimal control of weeds in rice, soybean, tobacco, and vegetable crops.
Q: When is the ideal time to apply Clomazone for effective weed control?
A: The best time to use Clomazone is pre-emergence, prior to the germination of weeds and immediately after sowing the crop. This timing helps prevent weed competition early in the crops growth cycle.
Q: Where can Clomazone be used in crop management?
A: Clomazone is suitable for use in rice paddies, soybean fields, tobacco plantations, and various vegetable crops, making it versatile for weed control across major agricultural sectors in India.
Q: What process does Clomazone use to inhibit weed growth?
A: Clomazone prevents the synthesis of carotenoids in susceptible weeds, thereby disrupting photosynthesis and leading to the death of unwanted plants, while allowing crops to thrive.
Q: How does using Clomazone benefit crop production?
A: By selectively targeting weed species without affecting the crop, Clomazone helps promote robust crop establishment, minimizes yield loss, and increases overall farm productivity.
Q: Is Clomazone compatible with other herbicides and pesticides?
A: Yes, Clomazone is generally compatible with most herbicides and pesticides, making it easy to integrate into existing weed and pest management programs for enhanced effectiveness.
