ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Animals: Hydrolysis of the ester and reduction of the nitro group. Plants: As for animals. Soil/Environment In soil and water, fluoroglycofen-ethyl is very rapidly hydrolysed to the corresponding acid. In soil, microbial degradation follows; DT50 (to acifluorfen) c. 11 h. Koc 1364, DT50 7-21 d (F. E. Dayan & S. O. Duke, Proc. Br. Crop Prot. Conf. - Weeds, 1997, 1, 83).
Usage: Herbicide developed by Rohm & Haas Co. (now Dow AgroSciences) as the ethyl ester. Manufacturers: Dow AgroSciences. Protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor.
Application: Fluoroglycofen-ethyl is a selective leaf- and root- herbicide. Post-emergence control of broad-leaved weeds and grasses (particularly Galium, Viola, and Veronica spp.) in wheat, barley, oats, peanuts, rice, and soya beans. Incompatible with suspension concentrate formulations.
