New compositions and methods are described for modulating the rate of conversion of ethylene bisdithiocarbamate fungicides, such as mancozeb, into ethylene bis-isothiocyanate sulfide (EBIS).

Compositions and methods to modulate the rate of EBIS production from dithiocarbamate fungicides

The present disclosure relates to pesticide compositions consisting of meso-sized particles in combination with certain adjuvants such as built-in adjuvants which are added directly to the formulation or to an aqueous dilution of the formulation such as tank-mix adjuvants, to provide enhanced effectiveness for the control of agricultural pests. Mesoparticle compositions containing such adjuvants have been found to provide improved effectiveness compared to mesoparticle compositions not containing such adjuvants or to conventional formulations.

Pesticide compositions of meso-sized particles with enhanced activity

Disclosed herein are mesocapsules that include agriculturally active ingredients. These mesocapsules are comprised of a polyurea shell and include hydrophilic groups on their surfaces and have a volume-average diameter of about 500 nm or less and some of them have a volume-average diameter on the order of about 300 nm or less. These mesocapsules are suited for delivering active ingredients that are not very soluble in water. Methods for making these mesocapsules include interfacial polycondensation reactions carried out in the presence of surfactants and other methods in which all or most of the surfactant is replaced by adding amino acids to the aqueous phase of the interfacial reaction mixture before forming the final emulsion.

Meso-sized capsules useful for the delivery of agricultural chemicals

The present invention relates to an isomeric composition comprising isomers of dinitro-octylphenyl esters, wherein the 2,6-dinitro-4-(1-propylpentyl)phenyl ester isomer is present in an amount of less than 0.1 weight percent, based on the total weight of the isomeric composition and to synergistic fungicidal mixtures therefrom.
