The present invention relates to a method of reducing crop damage by treating the seed of the crop with the safener before sowing. This can be done in addition to the use of crop protection combinations/compositions, in particular herbicide/safener combinations and compositions comprising thereof, which are highly suitable to protect crops from herbicide damage in pre- and post-emergence treatments.

Method of reducing crop damage

The present invention relates to herbicidal mixtures comprising (i) 2-[(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl]-4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidanone, (ii) pyroxasulfone and (iii) mefenpyr-diethyl, and to herbicidal compositions comprising these mixtures. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process for preparing these herbicidal mixtures and compositions comprising these mixtures. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the mixtures and compositions mentioned in the field of agriculture for controlling harmful plants.

Herbicidal mixtures

The present invention is directed to new uses of the herbicidal active compound 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidone (compound I) as foliar herbicide. Furthermore, the present invention is directed to combinations comprising active compound 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidone (compound I) and to a method for controlling undesired weeds by applying the herbicidal active compound 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidone (compound I) or combinations comprising compound I to weeds or to the area in which the weeds grow after emergence of the crop.

Uses of 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidone as foliar herbicide

Herbicide combinations comprising an effective amount of components (A) and (B), where component (A) is/are one or more herbicides of the formula (I) or salts thereof, in which

Herbicidal compositions

The invention relates to the use of C-C-carboxylic acid dibutylamides in agrochemical formulations, agrochemical formulations which comprise such compounds and the use as tank mix additives.

Use and agrochemical composition of carboxylic acid dibutylamides

Alkyl ether sulfates having 1 to 9 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and 1 to 20 alkyleneoxy units in the ether moiety are suitable for use as low-foam additives for enhancing the activity of water-soluble or partially water-soluble agrochemicals. They can be used to produce low-foam preparations for crop protection.

Low-foam preparations for crop protection

The invention relates to novel 2-acyloxypyrrolin-4-ones of the formula (I) in which A, B, G, W, X, Y and Z have the meaning given above,to a plurality of processes and intermediates for their preparation, and to their use as pesticides and/or herbicides. The invention also relates to selective herbicidal compositions comprising, firstly, the 2-acyloxypyrrolin-4-ones and, secondly, a crop plant compatibility-improving compound. The present invention furthermore relates to the boosting of the action of crop protection compositions comprising, in particular, 2-acyloxypyrrolin-4-ones, through the addition of ammonium salts or phosphonium salts and optionally penetrants, to the corresponding compositions, to processes for producing them and to their application in crop protection as insecticides and/or nematicides and/or acaricides and/or for preventing unwanted plant growth.

2-acyloxy-pyrrolin-4-ones

Compounds of the formula (I), or salts thereof, in which Rto Rare as defined in formula (I) of claimare suitable as useful-plant-protecting agents for reducing or preventing harmful effects of agrochemicals on the useful plants and their method of preparation are described.

Pyridinecarboxamides, useful-plant-protecting composition comprising them and processes for their preparation and their use

The present invention relates to novel 4-biphenyl-substituted pyrazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives of the formula (I) in which Moreover, the invention relates to selective herbicidal compositions comprising both the 4-biphenyl-substituted pyrazolidine-3,5-dione derivatives of the formula (I) and a crop plant compatibility-improving compound.

4-biphenyl-substituted pyrazolidin-3,5-dione derivatives

A herbicide combination comprising of components (A) and (B) exhibit synergistic herbicidal effects, where
