CENTRIS K.E., (KLETO DIM 240 G/L)

Advanced Grass Weed Control in Broadleaf Crops

CENTRIS C.E., containing 240 g/L of Clethodim, is a powerful selective herbicide engineered for post-emergence weed management. It provides a strategic solution for producers of soybeans, sunflower, rapeseed, sugar beet, potatoes, and flax who need to eliminate grass competition without impacting the crop yield.

Field Application Scenarios

The primary advantage of this systemic herbicide is its ability to translocate through the leaves directly to the growth points of grasses. This is particularly crucial for controlling resilient species such as:

• Couch grass (Elymus repens);
• Wild oats (Avena fatua);
• Green foxtail (Setaria viridis);
• Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli).

By disrupting lipid biosynthesis, the herbicide ensures not just the wilting of leaves, but the complete destruction of the weed's root system, which is vital for managing perennial grasses like couch grass. Unlike non-selective herbicides, Centris C.E. is highly selective, leaving broadleaf crops completely unaffected when applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Technical Efficiency and Usage

Produced by F.Superus Co., Ltd. (Hong Kong/Shanghai), the formulation is a concentrated emulsion designed for easy mixing and application. For optimal performance, the herbicide should be applied during the active growth phase of the weeds—ideally when they are between the 2nd and 6th leaf stage. This timing maximizes absorption, ensuring that the active ingredient reaches the rhizomes, preventing regrowth.

As a 3rd-hazard class chemical, it requires standard protective measures for operators. Its role in an integrated pest management (IPM) program is significant, as it allows farmers to adjust their spray schedule based on real-time field observations of weed emergence. By choosing Centris C.E., growers opt for a reliable, time-tested active ingredient that offers a clean field environment, allowing crops to focus their energy entirely on development rather than competing for nutrients and moisture with aggressive злаки (grass weeds).
