An object of the present invention is to provide a uniformly spreadable granular agricultural chemical formulation and to establish a method of scattering (applying) the formulation under the assumption that the spreadability of the agrochemically active ingredient is satisfactory so that the expected treatment effect of the agricultural chemicals can be obtained by local application even when algae are drifted by the wind and cover the surface of the water of the paddy field. A uniformly spreadable granular agricultural chemicals formulation which contains an agrochemically active ingredient, has a particle-size distribution such that 80% or more of the granules have a particle diameter of 3 mm or more, and has floatability on the water surface, and breaks down on the water surface within 30 minutes is obtained, and a method of scattering (applying) the above formulation on 5% to 50% of the total area of the paddy field applied from a levee at a distance of 1 m or more.

Uniformly spreadable granular agricultural chemicals formulation and method for scattering (applying) thereof

An object of the present invention is to provide a solid agricultural chemicals composition which is excellent in environmental safety, has no disadvantages of powdering and seeping out of an agrochemically active ingredient while containing the agrochemically active ingredient in high concentration and is excellent in residual-effect of the agriculturally active ingredient; a solid agricultural chemicals composition comprising a fragment of a fibre crop having high oil absorbency and a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature or liquid matter prepared by dissolving or dispersing an agrochemically active ingredient in a liquid solvent; and a method of producing the solid agricultural chemicals composition comprising the steps of impregnating a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature or liquid matter prepared by dissolving or dispersing the agrochemically active ingredient into a fragment of a fibre crop having high oil absorbency, and making it into a shape of powder, granule, or tablet.

Solid agricultural chemicals composition, preparation thereof and the method for scattering the same

In an agricultural chemicals composition which is scattered by being thrown directly into a submerged paddy field, it is an object to provide a composition having an excellent spreadability without stagnation of an agrochemically active ingredient at the point of treatment (application), and in particular to provide a labor-saving formulation for scattering (application) which contains a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature, and to provide an agricultural chemicals composition containing a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature in high concentrations, which have been difficult to be realized. The agricultural chemicals composition prepared by letting a granular nucleus coated with a water-soluble polymer or water-swellable substance hold agrochemically active ingredients and, if necessary, surfactants, and a method of scattering (applying) a granular agricultural chemicals formulation comprising the step of throwing the agricultural composition directly into a submerged paddy field at a rate of 20 g to 2,000 g thereof per 10 are of the paddy field, or packing 10 g to 100 g of the agricultural chemicals composition per bag made of a water-soluble film and throwing directly into a paddy field at a rate of 2 to 20 bags per 10 are.

Agricultural chemicals composition, preparation thereof and the method for scattering the same

In an agricultural chemicals formulation which is scattered by being thrown directly into a paddy field filled with water, it is an object to provide a composition having an excellent spreadability without stagnation of an agrochemically active ingredient at the point of throwing, and in particular to provide a labor-saving formulation for scattering (application) which contains a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature, and to provide an agricultural chemicals formulation containing a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature in high concentrations, which have been difficult to be realized. The agricultural chemicals formulation for a rice paddy field is produced by preparing a granular composition in a manner that a mixture of a liquid agrochemically active ingredient at room temperature, a surfactant, and a substance exhibiting a thickening function or a gelation function in the water, is held and carried by a granular nucleus, and packing it with a water-soluble film. The present invention also provides a method of scattering (applying) the agrochemically active ingredient, which is characterized by that the agricultural chemicals formulation is directly thrown into a paddy field filled with water at a rate of 2 to 20 bags per 10 a.
