Herbicide mixtures and formulations for potatoes

Abstract

This topic provides a method of controlling or preventing unwanted plants in potato crops. The method includes applying a herbicidal active composition to the area of ​​the undesired plants, the herbicidal active composition comprising diflufenicon and flufenacet, or any one of the foregoing diflufenac and flutrifen. esters or salts, or combinations thereof.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present subject matter relates to a method of controlling or preventing unwanted vegetation in potato crops and reducing the total amount of herbicidally active compounds necessary for controlling or preventing unwanted vegetation. Background technique [0002] In order to obtain high crop efficiency, control of unwanted plants is extremely important. In many cases, although multiple herbicides have an effect on a broad range of weeds, they do not, however, attack some of the other weed species that are also present in the crop to be protected. . Therefore, there is an urgent need to mix two or more herbicides. [0003] Mixtures of selected herbicides have several advantages over the use of a single herbicide, including: (a) increasing the breadth of weeds controlled or extending weed control over a longer period of time; timing; (b) improve the safety of modifications by applying multiple minimum doses of multiple selected herbicides in combina...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the activity and selectivity performance of any particular mixture is difficult to predict because the performance of each individual herbicide in the mixture is often affected by the presence of other mixture(s), and the mixture The activity of the herbicides may also vary significantly depending on the chemical traits, plant species, growth stage, and environmental conditions, which may lead to a reduction in the activity of the plurality of herbicides in the mixture.
