Abstract
The activity of barban is enhanced and variation of selectivity with climatic conditions is alleviated by applying to wild oats an effective amount of a composition comprising one part by weight barban and at least four parts by weight of a polyunsaturated fatty acid exemplified by linolenic acid. The composition is preferably either dispersed in water with the aid of an emulsifier or dissolved in a mixture of water and a volatile organic solvent such as acetone.
