Abstract
Provided are methods and compositions to control growth of weed plants. The compositions include an herbicidally effective amount of an herbicidally active chemical compound and a thiocyanate, together with an herbicidally acceptable diluent, carrier or excipient. The thiocyanate preparation can be provided in the form of a glucosinolate hydrolysate obtained from Sinapis alba plant material. Methods of making and using the formulations are also provided.
Claims7
A method for controlling growth of a weed plant, the method comprising co-applying N-(phosphomethyl)glycine (glyphosate), or an herbicidally acceptable salt thereof, and thiocyanate, wherein the relative applied dry weight of thiocyanate to the relative applied dry weight of N-(phosphomethyl)glycine (glyphosate), or an herbicidally acceptable salt thereof, is selected to be 450:1 to 550:1, and wherein the thiocyanate is applied at a rate of from 10 kilogram to 25 kilogram thiocyanate per acre.
