Overview
About this product
Citrin is a post-emergence graminicide for sugar beet and sunflower, an emulsifiable concentrate with clethodim, 240 g/L. Weeds absorb clethodim through their leaves and other organs; the vascular system carries it to the growing points, where lipid biosynthesis is inhibited.
Citrin is applied in a tank mix with the surfactant Samfast: 1.0 l/ha of the product and 2.4 l/ha of the surfactant, once per season. Annual grasses are sprayed at the 2–6 leaf stage, perennial ones at a height of 10–15 cm, using 200–300 l/ha of working solution.
