Abstract
An agrochemical composition includes an agrochemical and a surfactant that has a structure (I)-(III). The surfactant may be further defined as an alkyl etheramine polyglycerol surfactant. In another embodiment, the surfactant may be further defined as an amine oxide, as also described above. In another embodiment, the surfactant may be further defined as a quat or quaternary ammonium compound.
