Abstract: A method for the control of soil-dwelling pests and/or soil-borne diseases comprising treating a plant propagation material with an effective amount of the pesticidal composition and/or applying an effective amount of a pesticidal composition to a locus where control is desired, provided that the composition comprises, as active ingredient, one or more pesticides (A) having a water solubility of at most 100 ?g/liter, at 25° C. at neutral pH, and at least one formulation auxiliary, wherein the size of particles in the composition is in the range 3.60 ?m to 0.70 ?m at X90. Abamectin has been found to be particularly effective against nematode damage.

Abstract: A fungicidal composition in the form of a liquid concentrate, which, in addition to at least one formulation adjuvant, comprises cyprodinil and an unsaturated C18-fatty acid selected from oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid.

Abstract: A composition comprising (i) a compound of Formula (I), wherein R1 is CH3, CHF2 or CF3; R2 is H, F or Cl; X is —CH?CH— or —S—; and R3 is bicyclopropyl, 1,3-dimethylbutyl or 1,3,3-trimethylbutyl; (ii) cyprodinil and (iii) an unsaturated C18-fatty acid selected from oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid.

Abstract: A chemically and physically stable suspoemulsion formulation, free from polymeric stabilisers having a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 1,000,000 daltons, comprising: (i) a continuous phase, (ii) an HPPD-inhibiting herbicide insoluble in the continuous phase, (iii) a chloroacetamide, and (iv) one or more aromatic ethoxylate compounds or derivatives thereof with the exclusion of formulations comprising all of a tristyrylphenol-ethoxylate having 6-14 mol ethoxylate, in non-ionic form, and a tristyrylphenol-ethoxylate having 14-18 mol ethoxylate in form of its sulphate or phosphate, in anionic or acid form, and a dialkyl-sulfosuccinate salt is disclosed.

Abstract: A method of seed treatment for a lot of seeds, which comprises treating the lot with one or more pesticides, and one or more formulation auxiliaries selected from (a) one or more alkoxylates and (b) one or more block polyoxyalkylene polymers, wherein the total loading of (a) and (b) is at least 10 grams/100 kg of seeds and the loading of pesticides is at most 100 grams/100 kg of seeds; exempted is a loading of (a) and (b) of 18 to 24 grams/100 kg of seeds when the loading of difenoconazole is 3.6 grams/100 kg or when the loading of fludioxonil is 3.75 or 5 grams/100 kg of seeds.
