The present invention relates to a method of controlling weeds using mixtures of HPPD inhibiting herbicides and plant growth regulators. It also relates to mixtures of HPPD inhibiting herbicides and plant growth regulators per se, and compositions comprising the same.

Herbicidal compositions

The present invention relates to a herbicidal composition comprising mesotrione and a pyridine herbicide such as dithiopyr, triclopyr, fluoroxypyr or thiazopyr. The invention also relates to methods of controlling the growth of weeds, and to the use of this composition.

Herbicidal composition and method of use thereof

The present invention relates to method of controlling the growth of weeds, in particular barnyard grass, giant foxtail, large crabgrass, fall, goosegrass and/or woolly cupgrass, using a herbicidal composition comprising trinexapac-ethyl and at least one HPPD inhibiting herbicide. It also relates to the use of this composition, particularly on turfgrass.

The present invention relates to a to a method of controlling the growth of weeds, in particular, large crabgrass and white clover, using a herbicidal composition comprising mesotrione and a triazolinone herbicide such as sulfentrazone or carfentrazone-ethyl. The invention also relates to the use of this composition.

The present invention relates to a method of controlling the growth of weeds, in particular, large crabgrass and white clover, using a herbicidal composition comprising mesotrione and a s-metolachlor.

The present invention is directed to a method which enables the user to select a suitable soya variety as a subsequent crop to maize when weed control in that maize crop has been carried out using HPPD inhibitor herbicides in a manner that 'carry-over' damage to the soya crop is thereby avoided. The method includes the step of first selecting a 'reference soya' that exhibits a visually determinable phytotoxicity with respect to the HPPD inhibitor herbicide used to carry out weed control on the maize crop. Next, the phytotoxicity of various soya varieties is determined in relation to the reference soya variety in the form of a factor. This factor can be expressed, for example, in letters, numbers, symbols, colors or other visual or acoustic signals or in words. These soya varieties are then labeled with the factor and can be made accessible to the user. For example, the factor can be indicated on or inside the product packaging or in an accompanying leaflet.

Method of labelling soya varieties

A herbicidal composition comprising, in addition to customary inert formulation adjuvants, as active ingredient a) an antagonistically active amount of at least one compound A selected from the group of compounds of formula A.sub.1 ##STR1## and compounds of formula A.sub.2 ##STR2## compounds of formula A.sub.3 ##STR3## b) a herbicidally effective amount of at least one compound G selected from the group of compounds, preferably having the 2R-configuration, of formula G.sub.1 ##STR4## compounds of formula G.sub.2 ##STR5## c) an acid the pK value of which is smaller than the pK values of compounds G and A.
