Application
Environmental behaviour
Allidochlor is highly volatile and likely to bioconcentrate.[6] Residue in leeks, treated with up to 3 applications of 7 kg/Ha of allidochlor, was under 100 ppb.[5]
Formulations
Formulations of allidochlor have been marketed as Randox, Randox T, Actox Granular, Vega-Rand and Cdaa 20 G, usually supplied as emulsifiable concentrate.[1]
