Description
Cinmethylinwas developed by Shell Chemical
Company in the early 1980s as a weed control agent for
monocotyledonous species. This herbicide controls important
grasses such as green foxtail (Setaria viridis) and
barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) and suppresses
the growth of several broadleaf weeds such as prickly
sida (Sida spinosa) and velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti).
