Abstract: Described are preferred methods and compositions useful for controlling aquatic weeds that involve the use of fluridone. Preferred herbicidal compositions include fluridone in a formulation that also comprises an organic solvent and an emulsifying surfactant system.

Abstract: Described are preferred formulations comprising amine salts of 2,4-D or triclopyr or both, loaded on a granular carrier including plant fiber and mineral filler, 5 and optionally a binder. Also described are methods of making and using such compositions.

Abstract: Compositions useful in pesticidal applications include water, a copper complex and an alpha olefin sulfonate surfactant. Additional components can be included in such formulations including one or more additional surfactants, and one or more penetrating agents.

Abstract: Described are preferred solid herbicidal formulations that include one or more herbicides in combination with a solid carrier, as well as methods of manufacture and use thereof. Solid herbicidal formulations are designed to deliver a moderated release of the incorporated load of herbicidal agent(s), for example to enhance uptake by target plants and/or the ability to spatially control a plant population within a body of water that exhibits flow.

Abstract: Described are preferred formulations comprising amine salts of 2,4-d or triclopyr or both, loaded on a granular carrier including plant fiber and mineral filler, and optionally a binder. Also described are methods of making and using such compositions.

Abstract: A composition and method for forming plant containers, such as plant propagation trays providing control of plant root growth. The method includes applying to a sheet of thermoformable plastic an aqueous coating composition including between approximately 20% and 45% by weight non-delaminating acrylic latex, between approximately 8% and 30% by weight copper hydroxide, between approximately 2% and 20% by weight filler, and between approximately 0.5% and 5% by weight dispersant. The coating is dried and the plastic sheet is heated to a temperature sufficient to form the plastic. The plastic sheet is then formed into a desired shape.

Abstract: There is disclosed a cold storage stabilized organophosphorus insecticide formulation. The formulation comprises a solid carrier and between approximately 2% and 40% by weight of the ultimate formulation of a nominally solid organophosphorus insecticide and between approximately 0.5% and 10% by weight of the ultimate formulation of a stabilizer compound selected from cyclohexanone and N-methylpyrrolidone. A method of making the cold storage stabilized organophosphorus insecticide formulation is also disclosed.
