Clom BT, KE (cloquazol, 480 g/l)

Reliable Start-up Protection for Soybeans

For an agronomist working with soybeans, it is critical to "close" the field from weeds during the first few weeks after sowing. Klom BT, EC, based on clomazone (480 g/L), is a tool that allows for a reliable soil herbicide barrier. It has proven effective against a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including aggressive species such as common ragweed, redroot pigweed, and common lambsquarters.

Application and Dosage

The product is a systemic pre-emergence herbicide. Its main advantage is its selective action. When following the regulations (0.2–0.5 L/ha), it does not suppress the crop but provides a powerful "burn-down" effect on weeds before they even appear on the surface. It is important to remember that this is a single-treatment product, so the quality of soil preparation is crucial—the soil must be fine-grained and free of large clods for the herbicide barrier to be applied uniformly.

Key Points for Success

• Soil Control: The effect directly depends on soil moisture. If the soil is too dry, the activity of clomazone decreases.
• Selectivity: Klom BT is selective for soybeans, allowing for confident application over the field without risk to the crops.
• Safety: The product belongs to hazard class 3, which requires standard safety measures when preparing the spray solution.

Manufacturing facilities (Nanjing Red Sun, Shanghai Bioagriland Crop Care, Shandong Sino-Agri United Biotechnology) ensure a stable emulsion concentrate form that mixes easily with water and does not clog sprayer nozzles. For a farm owner, this means predictable consumption and no equipment downtime. Klom BT is a classic choice for those who prioritize clean fields with minimal chemical intervention throughout the rest of the season.
