Profoxydim (Ref: BAS 625H) |
Last updated: 31/10/2024 |
(Also known as: clefoxydim; clefoxidim) |
SUMMARY |
Profoxydim is a post-emergence rice herbicide. It has a low aqueous solubility, is volatile and does not present a risk of leaching to groundwater. It is non-persistent in soil but can be persistent in water. It has a low mammalian toxicity and the risk of bioaccumulation is low. No other serious human health risks have been identified. It shows a low to moderate toxicity to birds, aquatic organisms, honeybees and earthworms. |
Data alerts |
The following alerts are based on the data in the tables below. An absence of an alert does not imply the substance has no implications for human health, biodiversity or the environment but just that we do not have the data to form a judgement.
