  • Metam salts and polysulfide soil treatment
    Patent number: 11039618
    Abstract: A stable concentrated solution of a metam salt and a polysulfide, particularly calcium polysulfide, can be used to treat for soil pathogens, including the pathogen responsible for potato early die. Calcium polysulfide alone in sufficient concentration and dosage provides activity against the same pathogen. It is believed that the high concentrations of the compounds, that is, the high concentration of lime sulfur admixed with a metam, results in lower rates of degradation that result from calcareous soil, increased soil adsorption or retention, and improved distribution of metam or methyl isothiocyanate (MITC) in the soil.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 22, 2017
    Date of Patent: June 22, 2021
    Assignee: Tessenderlo Kerley, Inc.
    Inventors: Kyle England Coleman, Michael Massoud Hojjatie, Bernard Oscar Olsen, Kurt Carl Volker
  • SOIL TREATMENT WITH METAM SALTS AND ONE OR MORE OF CALCIUM THIOSULFATE, CALCIUM CHLORIDE AND CALCIUM NITRATE
    Publication number: 20200404921
    Abstract: A stable concentrated solution of a metam salt and one or more of calcium thiosulfate, calcium chloride and calcium nitrate, can be used to treat for soil pathogens, including the pathogen responsible for potato early die. It is believed that the high concentrations of the compounds, that is, the high concentration of calcium thiosulfate, calcium chloride and/or calcium nitrate admixed with a metam, results in lower rates of degradation that result from calcareous soil, increased soil adsorption or retention, and improved distribution of metam or methyl isothiocyanate (MITC) in the soil.
