Synergistic herbicidal composition containing penoxsulam and florasulam
View Patent ↗A synergistic herbicidal composition containing (a) penoxsulam and (b) florasulam provides weed control in multiple crops and settings, e.g., rice, cereal and grain crops, turf, industrial vegetation management, sugar cane, range and pasture, and tree and vine orchards.
1. A synergistic herbicidal composition comprising a herbicidally effective amount of (a) penoxsulam and (b) florasulam, wherein the weight ratio of penoxsulam:florasulam is about 7:1 to about 1:1.
2. The synergistic herbicidal composition of claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio is about 7:1.
3. The synergistic herbicidal composition of claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio is from about 2.7:1 to about 2.0:1.
4. An herbicidal composition comprising a herbicidally effective amount of the synergistic herbicidal composition of claim 1 and an agriculturally acceptable adjuvant or carrier.
5. The composition of claim 4 , wherein the weight ratio is about 7:1.
6. The composition of claim 4 , wherein the weight ratio is from about 2.7:1 to about 2.0:1.
7. A method of controlling undesirable vegetation which comprises contacting the vegetation or the locus thereof with a herbicidally effective amount of a synergistic herbicidal composition comprising (a) penoxsulam and (b) florasulam, wherein the weight ratio of penoxsulam:florasulam is about 7:1 to about 1:1.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the weight ratio is about 7:1.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the weight ratio is from about 2.7:1 to about 2.0:1.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the undesirable vegetation is controlled in rice, cereal and grain crops, turf, industrial vegetation management, sugar cane, range and pasture, or tree and vine orchards.
11. The method of claim 7 in which the synergistic herbicidal composition is applied preemergence to early postemergence.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the undesirable vegetation is ANTCO, CLDAR, LMAM, SONOL, MALNE, or VLLEC.
