Herbicidal compositions comprising benzoylpyrazoles and safeners
View Patent ↗What is described are herbicidal compositions comprising herbicidal compounds of the formula I and a compound which acts as safener. In the formula I, the symbols R 1 to R 4 denote hydrogen, halogen, alkyl and haloalkyl.
1. A herbicidal composition comprising:
(A) a herbicidally effective amount of a compound of the formula (I), a stercoisomer or an agriculturally useful salt thereof,
wherein R 1 represents a methyl group; R 2 represents a trifluoromethyl group; R3 represents a methyl group; R 4 represents a methyl group; R 5 represents hydrogen; and n is 2; and
(B) an antidote-effective amount of at least one safener selected from the group consisting of mefenpyr-diethyl, isoxadifen-ethyl, cloquintocet-mexyl, and mixtures thereof.
2. The herbicidal composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio herbicide:safener is from 1:100 to 100:1.
3. A method for controlling harmful plants in crops of useful plants, which comprises applying a herbicidally effective amount of a herbicidal composition according to claim 1 , onto the harmful plants, plants, plant seeds or the area on which the plants grow.
4. A method for controlling harmful plants in crops of useful plants, which comprises applying a herbicidally effective amount of a herbicidal composition according to claim 2 onto the harmful plants, plants, plant seeds or the area on which the plants grow.
5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the plants originate from the group consisting of corn, wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, sorghum, cotton, sugar cane and soya.
6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the plants originate from the group consisting of corn, wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, sorghum, cotton, sugar cane and soya.
7. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the plants are genetically modified.
8. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the plants are genetically modified.
9. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the plants are genetically modified.
10. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the plants are genetically modified.
