Cinidon-ethyl (Ref: BAS 615H)	Last updated: 14/01/2023
(Also known as: cinidon-ethyl)

SUMMARY

Cinidon-ethyl is a post-emergence herbicide. It has a low aqueous solubility, is relatively volatile with a low tendency to leach to groundwater. It is slightly mobile. It is not persistent in soil or water systems. Cinidon-ethyl has a low mammalian toxicity and is not expected to bioaccumulate. It is moderately toxic to earthworms but more toxic to aquatic organisms. It is relatively non- toxic to honeybees.
