First Chinese company approved for cloransulam-methyl technical
Oct. 13, 2015
Chinese agrochemical company Jiangsu Agrochem Laboratory Co. Ltd. has received the registration of its 98% Cloransulam-methyl technical to be used along with 84% cloransulam-methyl WDG to control broadleaf weeds in spring soybean fields, from the Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, MOA (ICAMA). As per Chinese registration, Jiangsu Agrochem Laboratory is the first Chinese company approved for cloransulam-methyl technical in China, in addition to Dow’s 97.5% cloransulam-methyl technical registration.
Cloransulam-methyl belongs to the sulfonamide herbicide family developed by Dow AgroSciences. Its main site of action is the meristematic regions of plants. Cloransulam-methyl is used pre- and post-emergence in soybean fields to control broadleaf weeds. The herbicide is effective in controlling weeds in Siberian cocklebur, ragweed, three-lobed leaf ragweed, sweet potato and abutilon. Cloransulam-methyl can also be used with a combination of flumioxazin and sulfentrazone.
Cloransulam-methyl was first launched in 1998 and was recommended for use along with glyphosate in soybean fields, as per Dow AgroSciences’ Best Shot herbicide program. In 2003, cloransulam-methyl was launched as a Gangster herbicide for mixing with Valent’s flumioxazin. Dow AgroSciences also entered into a product supply agreement with FMC in 2007, introducing Authority First DF, combining cloransulam-methyl and sulfentrazone, which is a Sonic herbicide under the Dow portfolio. Annual sales of cloransulam-methyl in 2013 recorded 55 million dollars.
