Publication number: 20110111958Abstract: This invention relates to a liquid, homogenous herbicide composition, a method of weed control, a method of production of a liquid, homogenous herbicide composition and use of a liquid, homogenous herbicide composition for weed control. More precisely the invention relates to a liquid, homogenous herbicide composition containing glyphosate as the active substance and a mixture of modifying-activating adjuvants, made up of ammonium sulphate, one or several carboxylic acids, a non-ionic surfactant from the alkylpolyglycoside group of alkyl chain length Cg to C16 or its mixture with one or several amphoteric surfactants from the iminodipropionates, betaine and amino-oxide group, and compatibilising substances allowing preparation of a homogenous and stable formulation. The herbicide composition, after dilution with water and applied at an appropriate rate per area unit, is assigned for weed and other undesired plants control.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2008Publication date: May 12, 2011Applicant: SN BIOTECH TECHNOLOGIES SP.
