PRODUCT INFORMATION
CLETHO 240 EC is a selective Post-emergence Herbicide for Annual and Perennial Grass Control in Broadleaf Crops and Forestry. CLETHO 240 EC is the proven Grass Weed Herbicide that you can rely on. It is highly effective on a wide range of Grass Species, including Wild Oats, Poa Annua and Ryegrasses. It is also highly systemic and rapidly rainfast.
Active Ingredient:
240g/litre Clethodim EC in the form of an Emulsifiable Concentrate.
What It Is:
- CLETHO 240 EC = selective Post-emergence Herbicide.
- Chemical Group: Group A (DIM Grass Herbicide).
- Designed specifically to kill Grass Weeds without damaging Broadleaf Crops.
What It Controls:
- Targets a wide range of Annual + Perennial Grasses, including:
- Ryegrass (Annual & Perennial).
- Wild Oats.
- Cocksfoot.
- Barnyard Grass.
- Summer Grass.
- Barley Grass.
- Couch, Paspalum (Higher Rates).
Some Grasses like Yorkshire Fog may only be suppressed, not fully killed.
Where It’s Used:
- Broadleaf Crops (e.g. Legumes, Vegetables).
- Forestry (Tree Release Spraying).
- Clover-based systems.
- Important: it DOES NOT control Broadleaf Weeds — only Grasses.
How It Works:
- Systemic → absorbed through leaves and moves to growing points.
- Stops Grass growth, then kills Plant over time.
- Rainfast quickly once absorbed.
Works Best On:
- Young, actively growing Grasses.
- Not stressed (cold, drought, waterlogging).
Application Basics:
Typical Rates: (depending on Grass).
- 0.25–0.5 L/ha → small Annual Grasses.
- 0.5–1.0 L/ha → tougher Annual Grasses.
- 2–3 L/ha → Perennial Grasses (e.g. Couch).
Water Rates:
- 100–400 L/ha.
- Use higher rates for dense infestations.
Additives:
- Requires Result® Spraying Oil / adjuvant for best performance.
- Special use (Forestry / Spot Spraying).
Spot Mix:
- 3.5 mL CLETHO 240 EC + 10 mL Result® Oil per litre of water.
- Apply to actively growing Grass Seedlings.
Withholding Periods:
- Vegetables: ~5 weeks.
- Clover: ~9 weeks.
- Legumes: ~3 weeks.
Key Restrictions:
- DO NOT apply during Asparagus cutting period.
- Avoid mixing with most other Herbicides (can reduce effectiveness).
- Often used alone or with very specific tank partners.
Safety & Environmental Risks:
- Causes Skin + Eye Irritation.
- May cause organ damage with repeated exposure.
- Very toxic to Aquatic Life.
Critical:
- DO NOT spray near Waterways.
- Avoid drift.
- Wear full PPE (Gloves, Eye/Face Protection).
Resistance Management:
- Group A Herbicide → high resistance risk (Especially Ryegrass).
Rotate With:
- Different Herbicide Groups.
- Avoid repeated use year after year.
- Ryegrass resistance is a real issue in NZ systems.
Bottom Line:
- Grass-only Herbicide (won’t touch Broadleaf Weeds).
Very Effective In:
- Clover.
- Lucerne.
- Vegetable Crops.
Needs:
- Correct Rate + Result® Oil + Timing.
- Watch resistance carefully.
Caution:
Must be used strictly according to label directions.
Available in 5L. 20L
