Abstract: A method for the synergistic plant nematode control in sugar cane with a mixture of fipronil and abamectin comprising fipronil and abamectin in a ratio by weight of from 1:10 to 10:1, wherein the mixture is applied to sugar cane in furrow, a method for the synergistic plant nematode control in sugar cane with a mixture of fipronil and abamectin comprising fipronil and abamectin in a ratio by weight of from 1:10 to 10:1, wherein the mixture is applied to plant propagation materials of sugar cane, and a method which combines synergistic plant nematode control with (preferably synergistic) improvement of the plant health of sugar cane plants.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving the plant health of at least one plant variety, which method comprises treating the plant and/or the locus where the plant is growing or is intended to grow with an amide compound of the formula I (compound I). The present invention also relates to a method for improving the plant health of at least one plant variety, which method comprises treating the plant and/or the locus where the plant is growing or is intended to grow with a mixture comprising an amide compound having the formula I (compound I) and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a further fungicide II (compound II), a further fungicide III (compound IIb), an insecticide (compound III) and a herbicide (compound IV).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving the plant health of at least one plant variety, which method comprises treating the plant propagules with an amide compound having the formula I (compound I). The present invention also N relates to a method for improving the plant health of at least one plant variety, which method comprises treating the plant propagules with a mixture comprising an amide compound having the formula I (compound I) and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a further fungicide Il (compound II), a further fungicide III (compound lib) and an insecticide III (compound III).

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of insecticides which are selected among GABA antagonists and nicotin receptor agonists/antagonists, if appropriate in combination with at least one gibberellin, as safener for fungicides which have a phytotoxic effect. Moreover, the invention relates to a method of reducing or preventing the phytotoxic effect of fungicides on plants treated therewith or on plants whose seeds or growth substrate have been or are treated with these fungicides. The invention finally also relates to compositions which comprise at least one GABA antagonist, at least one azole fungicide or strobilurin fungicide and, if appropriate, at least one gibberellin, and to compositions which comprise at least one nicotin receptor agonist/antagonist, at least one azole fungicide or strobilurin fungicide and, if appropriate, at least one gibberellin.
