Compatibility of herbicide Klom BT:
Compatible with other means of plant protection in tank mixes, except alkaline, but in each specific case it is necessary to conduct trial mixing (absence of sediment, foam, delamination, clumping, incomplete dissolution of one of the drugs, temperature increase, etc.).

Preparation of working solution:
The working solution of the drug must be prepared at specially equipped points. Beforeusing the container it is necessary to shake the drug, prepare the equipment for spraying: check the serviceability of the systemssprayer, carry out a thorough washing of the tank, main pipelines and nozzles for spraying the working mixture. Before work, adjust the sprayer to the specified operating mode. When the sprayer is in mixing mode, pour the necessary amount of the drug into a sprayer tank filled with water to 1/3. After a few minutes, add water until the tank is full. After applying the drug, it is necessary to thoroughly wash the tank, main pipelines and nozzles with clean water.

Mechanism of action of Klom BT:
It has a systemic effect. Clomazone belongs to pigments biosynthesis inhibitors. Penetrating plants through roots and shoots, clomazone travels up the plant to the point of growth, where it inhibits the formation of the photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll and carotene. As a result, weeds do not germinate or their seedlings appear white or translucent and die.
Spectrum of action

Sensitive weeds: quinoa (species), blue cornflower, wormwood (species), common sedge, tenacious nightshade, common sorrel, common sedum. Moderately sensitive weeds: ragweed, common styrica, burdock (species), sunflower (carrion), nettle (species), mouse (species), chicken millet, chamomile, bitter gourd (species). Insensitive weeds: nightshade, garden purslane, violet (species), field birch.

Recommendations for use:
Soil spraying is carried out before sowing or during the first three days after sowing. If the soil moisture is insufficient after applying the drug, it is advisable to dig it up with the help of light harrows or other tools. At the same time, the depth should be adjusted relative to the occurrence of seeds of cultivated plants.

The rate of application of the drug depends on the content of humus in the soil: on soils with a low content of humus, it is recommended to use reduced rates of the drug. Optimal conditions for spraying: wind speed 3-5 m/s, air temperature not higher than +25⁰С. In the case of a change in the color of the first pair of leaves of the culture after using the drug, the color disappears within 7-10 days, without negatively affecting the growth and development of the plants.

Rate of consumption of working fluid: 300 l/ha.
