Abstract: A nonionic surfactant blend is described for use with odoriferous compatible herbicides. The nonionic surfactant blend includes an effective amount of an acidulated soybean soapstock. The acidulated soybean soapstock includes a range of total fatty acids of about 94%-to-96% by volume and a moisture content of not more than about 5% by volume. The present invention also includes a method for reducing odor of a herbicide. The method includes providing an effective quantity of the improved nonionic surfactant blend for combination with the herbicide.
Abstract: The present invention includes a homogenous blend for use with a herbicide comprising water, ammonium sulfate and alkyl polysaccharide, with a concentration of about 8.5 pounds of ammonium sulfate or about 2.5 gallons of the blend. The present invention also includes a method for making the homogeneous herbicidal blend, a method for killing broadleaf weeds.
