TATA Rallis Prodim Ultra (Clethodim 13% w/w EC) Herbicide

Prodim Ultra (containing Clethodim 13% w/w EC) is a selective, post-emergence systemic herbicide widely used to manage and control stubborn grassy weeds in broadleaf crops.

1. Product Details & Technical Composition

• Active Ingredient: Clethodim 13% w/w

• Formulation Type: Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC)

• Mode of Action: Systemic action. It is absorbed through the foliage and translocated rapidly to the growing points and meristematic tissues of the weed. It inhibits the ACCase (acetyl-CoA carboxylase) enzyme, which stops fatty acid and lipid synthesis necessary for grass cell growth.

• Target Crops: Typically applied in broadleaf crops such as soybeans, cotton, onions, and various vegetables where grass weeds compete with harvests.

2. Description

Prodim Ultra functions as a "grass-specific" selective herbicide. While it heavily targets and destroys annual and perennial grasses, it leaves broadleaf crops unharmed because broadleaf plants possess a different form of the ACCase enzyme that is unaffected by clethodim. It works from the inside out, shutting down the weed's central development system rather than just burning the surface foliage.

3. Target Weeds (What it Controls)

It is effective against a broad spectrum of annual and perennial grassy weeds, including:

• Crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis)

• Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon)

• Johnsongrass

• Barnyardgrass / Jungle rice (Echinochloa colona)

• Crowfoot grass (Dactyloctenium aegyptium)

• Goosegrass (Eleusine indica)

4. Dosage & Application

• General Dosage: Typically ranges around 400 ml per acre (mixed thoroughly with clean water for a uniform foliar spray), depending on the crop and weed intensity. (Always consult the specific product label for exact regional crop recommendations).

• Application Timing: Best applied post-emergence when grassy weeds are actively growing (ideally in early growth stages—younger weeds are significantly more susceptible).

• Rainfastness: It is typically rainfast within 1 to 2 hours after application, meaning sudden light rain showers occurring after this window will not heavily diminish its absorption.

• Visual Results: Initial symptoms (such as yellowing, reddening, or wilting of the foliage) appear within 5 to 10 days, with complete weed death occurring within 10 to 20 days.

5. Key Benefits

• High Crop Safety: Highly selective; it kills grass weeds without causing collateral damage or toxicity to recommended broadleaf crops.

• Deep Systemic Kill: Moves all the way down to the roots and underground storage tissues, preventing weed regrowth.

• Effective Against Tough Grasses: Excellent solution for hard-to-kill perennial and annual grasses that resist standard weed management.

• Resistance Management: Serves as a rotation partner in resistance management programs, complementing broad-spectrum or broadleaf-selective herbicides.
