  • Publication number: 20150164082
    Abstract: Herbicidal concentrate compositions containing a combination of glyphosate salt and dicamba salt are provided. For example, a low volatility aqueous herbicidal concentrate composition including a glyphosate salt, dicamba salt, and a surfactant is described, wherein (i) the composition contain a total active herbicide loading of glyphosate salt and dicamba salt of at least about 450 grams acid equivalent per liter; (ii) the pH of the concentrate composition is less than about 5.7; and (iii) the acid equivalent weight ratio of glyphosate salt to dicamba salt is from about 1:1 to about 3:1.

  • Publication number: 20140249026
    Abstract: Herbicidal concentrate compositions containing glyphosate salts and tank mix compositions containing a combination of glyphosate salt and dicamba salt herbicides are described. A method of preparing a tank mix composition comprising a glyphosate component and a dicamba component is also described. The method includes combining a glyphosate concentrate composition, a dicamba composition comprising one or more salts of dicamba and dilution water to form the tank mix composition. The glyphosate concentrate composition comprises a glyphosate salt selected from the group consisting of the monoethanolamine salt, the potassium salt, and mixtures thereof at a glyphosate loading of at least about 240 grams acid equivalent per liter (g a.e./l), and the pH of a 5 wt. % acid equivalent dilution of the glyphosate concentrate composition is from about 5 to about 6.5.
