Abstract
There are provided compositions comprising a concentrated amount of an herbicidally active agent, or combination of agents, in a solid state suspended in a water immiscible solvent containing an anionic surfactant and a nonionic surfactant and optionally containing an antifoam agent and a suspending or thickening agent. Upon dilution with hard or soft water, said compositions readily form sprayable herbicidal emulsions.
