Application: Clomazone it is used for broadleaf weed control in several crops, including soybeans, peas, maize, oilseed rape, sugar cane, cassava, pumpkins and tobacco. It may be applied pre-emergence of incorporated before planting the crop. Clomazone is relatively volatile (vapor pressure is 19.2 mPa) and vapors induce striking visual symptoms on non-target sensitive plants. Clomazone undergoes biological degradation, exhibiting a soil half life of one to four months. Adsorption of the herbicide to soil solids slows degradation and volatilization. Encapsulation helps reduce volatility and therefore reduces off-target damage to sensitive plants.
