Description

Cloquintocet is a specialized agrochemical compound widely recognized as a safener for cereal crops. Its primary value lies in its ability to protect crops from herbicide injury, thereby enhancing the selectivity and safety of post-emergence weed control programs. This product is essential for agricultural chemical formulators and producers developing advanced herbicide mixtures for global grain production.

Application

• As a herbicide safener in formulations for wheat, barley, and rye.
• To improve crop tolerance to aryloxyphenoxypropionate (FOP) and sulfonylurea herbicides.
• In the production of combination products for post-emergence weed management in cereals.
• For research and development of new agrochemical formulations with enhanced safety profiles.
• Used in seed treatment applications to protect young seedlings from herbicide stress.
• As a key intermediate in the synthesis of more complex safener molecules.
