Clomazone 36% EC | Pre-emergent Selective Herbicide

Clean Starts for Row Crops

Clomazone 36% EC is a pre-emergent/early-post selective herbicide built to stop annual grasses and a wide range of broadleaf weeds before they establish—exactly what you need in rainy, staggered-flush seasons. As an HRAC 13 “bleaching” herbicide, it disrupts carotenoid biosynthesis so sensitive seedlings emerge pale/white and fail. The EC platform delivers fast tank readiness and stable handling. This page is non-operational—no field rates, mixes, or stepwise directions; all use must follow the registered product label in your market.

Why Clomazone 36% EC Works

• Active / Load: Clomazone 36% in an emulsifiable concentrate.

• Mode of Action (HRAC 13): Inhibits the DOXP/DXS step in the plastid MEP pathway → carotenoid depletion → chlorophyll photo-oxidation → bleaching and seedling death.

• Selectivity: Crop safety is label-defined (metabolism/placement); use strictly within labeled crop/site/timing.

Crop & Weed Fit

• Core grasses: barnyardgrass (Echinochloa), crabgrass (Digitaria), foxtails (Setaria).

• Broadleaves (examples): amaranths (Amaranthus), lambsquarters (Chenopodium), knotweeds (Polygonum).

• Crops (examples): cereals, corn, soybean, cotton, rice, vegetables—confirm scope on your local registration.

• Boundary: Not intended for perennials or advanced-stage weeds; greatest value where grass pressure dominates.

Preplant / Pre-em / Early-post

• Preplant (where labeled): Surface application or shallow incorporation as a base barrier.

• Pre-emergence (primary): Proactive soil layer that intercepts germinating cohorts.

• Early-post (where labeled): Limited window; not a strength on established weeds—use program partners as allowed by the label.

Formulation & Quality Window

• Intent: Fast emulsification, reliable re-dispersion, transport/storage robustness; clear, consistent appearance with controlled odor.

• Quality (range-based, non-numeric): Appearance uniform; emulsifiability/re-emulsifiability pass; cold/heat storage verified; pH/viscosity within release ranges.

• Consistency & Release: Raw-material ID → dispersion/stability control → in-process QC (appearance, emulsifiability, stability) → batch COA release; retention samples archived; all changes under change control.

• Safety note: ECs contain solvents—GHS hazard/precautionary statements and pictograms must align across label/SDS; PPE and handling are label-directed.

Safety, Storage & Compliance

• Label-first: Supply to licensed buyers; no off-label crops/sites or extrapolated timings.

• Storage/transport: Keep sealed in original containers; store cool, dry, well-ventilated, away from food/feed and incompatibles; ship with SDS and lane-required documents.

• Geography: Some markets specify buffers, sensitive-area constraints, or distinct label elements—complete regulatory checks and label alignment before commercialization.

• Non-operational page: No field rates, mixes, or stepwise instructions.

Packaging & OEM

• Pack sizes: 500 mL / 1 L (retail/professional); 5 L / 20 L (program/bulk). HDPE/PET with tamper-evident closures.

• Labeling & traceability: Multilingual artwork (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU on request), batch ID/QR, optional anti-counterfeit (serialization/hologram).

• Logistics kit: Drop-tested cartons; pallet patterns for 20GP/40HQ; packing list + SDS routing; shipment photo pack (filling/coding/cartoning/palletization) for intake QA.

• Documentation: COA / SDS / TDS / label elements standard; registration support dossier under NDA on request.

FAQ

What is the mode of action of Clomazone 36% EC?
It is an HRAC 13 bleaching herbicide that inhibits DOXP/DXS in the plastid MEP pathway, depleting carotenoids and causing seedling whitening and death.

Is Clomazone 36% EC only pre-emergent?
Primarily pre-em, with preplant/early-post use depending on crop and market—always follow your local label.

Which weeds are most reliably controlled?
Annual grasses (barnyardgrass/crabgrass/foxtails) plus common broadleaves (Amaranthus/Chenopodium/Polygonum) within labeled scope.

What documents are provided?
COA/SDS/TDS/label elements as standard; registration support dossier available under NDA.
