Abstract: Chemically stable, insecticidally active pellets having a low moisture content and at least about 95% active ingredient are described, as well as a method for manufacturing them. The active ingredient is selected from a class of N-hydrocarboyl phosphoroamidothioate and phosphoroamidodithioate compounds as described in the specification. The pellets generally have a moisture content of about 0.5% by weight or less, preferably less than about 0.3% by weight. The pellets can be produced by one of two types of processes as described in detail, including a high pressure axial extrusion process and a low pressure basket extrusion process.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an insecticidal composition including irregularly shaped to spherically shaped particles prepared by compaction, in the absence of a binder, of an admixture including ammonium sulfate and at least one insecticidal compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R and R.sup.1 individually are an alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group containing up to 6 carbon atoms, R.sup.2 is hydrogen, an alkyl group containing 1 to 18 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group containing 3 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group containing 2 to 18 carbon atoms or an alkynyl group containing 3 to 18 carbon atoms, R.sup.3 is hydrogen or an alkyl group containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and Y is oxygen or sulfur. The present invention is also directed to methods for manufacturing such particles and for killing insects with such particles.

Abstract: A novel composition is disclosed, comprising(a) an aqueous solution of an N-P or N-P-K fertilizer and(b) an attapulgite clay. The composition provides improved emulsion stability when combined with an emulsifiable concentrate of an organophosphorus compound of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, and C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylthio,R.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, and C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylthio,R.sup.3 is selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 alkylthioalkyl, phenyl, and C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 phenylthioalkyl, the phenyl rings optionally substituted with halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl, nitro, or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkylsulfinyl,X is oxygen or sulfur, andY is oxygen or sulfur.
