Clethodim is a chemical herbicide that is used to control broadleaf weeds in soybean, corn, and cotton. The herbicide can be applied as a pre-plant or post-emergent treatment. Clethodim binds to surface hydroxyl groups on metal hydroxides and forms stable chelates. The herbicide has low toxicity to mammals, fish, birds, and honeybees. It does not bind to soil particles and has a short persistence in the environment. Clethodim is metabolized by microorganisms and plants, but the metabolites are less toxic than the parent compound. The herbicide also has been shown to have adverse effects on plant physiology, such as decreased chlorophyll content and leaf area index. Clethodim is primarily used for weed control in crops such as kidney beans and soybeans. Clethodim is an organic chemical compound that belongs to the class of phenoxy herbicides.
