Activity
Herbicide
Flumiclorac-pentyl is absorbed rapidly by foliage resulting in wilting, chlorosis and necrosis of the leaves within 24 hours if applied in bright sunlight. Optimum activity is obtained when the product is applied early post-emergence (2-4 leaf stage in weeds). Flumiclorac-pentyl is rainfast one hour after application. The short soil half-life means it poses no risk to rotation crops.
In field trials, flumiclorac-pentyl gave similar control to fomesafen, but at very much lower application rates. The yield of soybeans was also similar to fomesafen-treated crops.
Maize and soybean show good tolerance to flumiclorac as does the weed Brassica kaber. The tolerance of Brassica to this herbicide is attributed to enhanced herbicide metabolism compared to susceptible species. Increased metabolism plus decreased herbicide retention, absorbtion and translocation explain the selectivity in maize whereas the tolerance of soybean is due to decreased herbicide retention and increased herbicide metabolism (Weed Science, 2000).
