Abstract: This invention provides for, inter alia, a method for increasing the rainfastness of an agrochemical composition without increasing its spreading properties, which comprises adding to said agrochemical composition an effective amount of one or more silicone surfactants of the formula R3Si—O—[RR′SiO—]n—O—SiR3 wherein n is 1 to 3, R is an alkyl radical with 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R′ is a radical of the structure —(CH2)m—O—(C2H4O)y(C2H3R″O)z—Z,  wherein m is 2 to 6, R″ is independantly methyl, ethyl or phenyl, Z is hydrogen, an alkyl radical with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an acyl radical with 2 to 6 carbon atoms, y is 6 to 30, z is 0 to 10, with the proviso that the ratio y/z is 1 or greater, and that the total number of alkylene oxide groups n*(y+z) in the siloxane polymer (I) is at least 12.

Abstract: A method of preventing damage to the seed and/or shoots and foliage of a plant by a pest includes treating the seed from which the plant grows with a composition that includes a combination of at least one pyrethrin or synthetic pyrethroid and at least one other insecticide selected from the group consisting of an oxadiazine derivative, a chloronicotinyl, a nitroguanidine, a pyrrol, a pyrazone, a diacylhydrazine, a triazole, a biological/fermentation product, a phenyl pyrazole, an organophosphate and a carbamate. It is preferred that when the other insecticide is an oxadiazine derivative, the pyrethroid is selected from the group consisting of taufluvalinate, flumethrin, trans-cyfluthrin, kadethrin, bioresmethrin, tetramethrin, phenothrin, empenthrin, cyphenothrin, prallethrin, imiprothrin, allethrin and bioallethrin.

Abstract: A method for preparing a dust-free beaded product from a low melting material is disclosed. The method is particularly applicable to manufacturing processes in which the last step in preparation of a product is a water wash step.

Abstract: Agriculturally acceptable pesticidally active ingredients, such as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides of low melting point, typically in the range from about 30.degree. C. to about 130.degree. C. and preferably in the range from about 30.degree. C. to about 90.degree. C. and low water solubility, typically in the range from about 0.01 ppm to about 1000 ppm and preferably in the range from about 0.01 ppm to about 300 ppm are frequently formulated as water-dispersed agrichemically acceptable formulations such as wettable powders (WP), water-dispersible granules (WG), and suspension concentrates (SC) and the like.

Abstract: Agriculturally effective active ingredients are encapsulated in a "salt sensitive" polymeric binder. Normally, the binder is water soluble and would release the active ingredient when wetted. In the presence of a hardening salt to which the polymer is sensitive, the polymer becomes water insoluble for so long as it is in chemical contact with the hardening salt. This sensitivity is used to control the circumstances and timing of the release of the encapsulated active ingredient.
