A formulated composition suitable for controlling or preventing pathogenic damage in a plant comprising (A) at least one solid active ingredient having a water solubility of at most 100 &#x3bc;g/liter at 25&#xb0; C. at neutral pH, in an amount of at least 1 weight %, based on the total weight of the formulated composition, (B) at least one non-ionic surface active compound having a hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) of between 10 and 18, one or more customary formulation auxiliaries, and water; wherein active ingredient (A) is suspended or dispersed in the water, the weight ratio of surface active compound (B) to active ingredient (A) is in the range of from 1.5 to 15.0, provided the minimum amount of surface active compound (B) is at least 6 weight %, based on the total weight of the formulated composition. Also a method of improving pesticide residue levels in agriculture.

Pesticidal compositions

The present application relates to surfactant compositions comprising a) at least one phosphated arylphenol alkoxylate surfactant having an average degree of alkoxylation of from 4-8; and b) at least one alkylamine alkoxylate surfactant having an average degree of alkoxylation of from 2-12 and to the use of these compositions in pesticide formulations comprising solid or encapsulated pesticidally active ingredients or formulation aids and methods for improving the re-suspension properties of pesticide suspensions.

Surfactant compositions

The present invention relates to novel suspension concentrate and suspoemulsion formulations comprising a herbicidally active amount of 2-(2'-nitro-4&#x2032;-methylsulphonylbenzoyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione(mesotrione), as well as agrochemically acceptable salts thereof, having a particle size, as defined herein, of less than 1 micron and to the use of thereof in controlling weeds in crops of useful plants.

Submicron mesotrione compositions

The present invention relates to aqueous-containing pesticide concentrates containing an ionic nitrate salt additive as a corrosion inhibitor as well as pesticide compositions prepared from these concentrates and to the use of said compositions for controlling pests.

Corrosion inhibitors for aqueous pesticide formulations

A herbicidal composition comprising, in addition to customary inert formulation excipients, as a mixture of at least one acetamide herbicide and a lipophilic additive comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of C13-C20 fatty acids, C13-C20 fatty alcohols and hydrocarbon fluids.

Herbicidal composition

The invention provides surfactant systems comprising alkyl polyglycosides, anionic surfactants and basic compounds. The invention also provides agricultural compositions comprising agriculturally active compounds, alkyl polyglycosides, anionic surfactants and basic compounds. The surfactant systems and agricultural compositions may further comprise nonionic surfactants.

Surfactant systems for agriculturally active compounds

The present invention relates to a surfactant for general use in agricultural compositions, including, but not limited to herbicidal, fungicidal and insecticidal formulations comprised of two components: an alkoxylated tristyrylphenol acid neutralized to the desired pH or properties with an appropriate amount of alkoxylated alkyl amine.
