Abstract: An aqueous suspension concentrate containing: (a) a first active ingredient comprising one or more triazolopyrimidine, triazolone, pyrazole or oxazole herbicides; (b) optionally, a second active ingredient, (c) a dispersant comprising a comb polymer; (d) a nonionic, alkoxylated surfactant or a block copolymer surfactant, and (e) optionally, a re-dispersing agent, wherein said aqueous suspension concentrate exhibits an acidic pH within the range from about greater than about 2 to about 4.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fungicidally effective compositions containing at least one pentacyclic triterpene compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fuingicidally effective compositions containing at least one pentacyclic triterpene compound.

Abstract: An agriculturally effective active ingredient is applied to plant foliage before, after, or simultaneously with an enhancer component containing a substantially pure bacterial culture, suspension, spores, or cells of a bacteria selected from the genus Bacillus or a soil bacteria.

Abstract: Baits useful for controlling lepidoptera populations is made with (a) a diet component for lepidoptera; (b) a toxicant; (c) a chemiluminescent, visual attractant and (d) an encapsulating agent that will allow moisture to permeate and form an external condensate of said diet and said toxicant. The diet, toxicant, and chemiluminescent visual attractant can be used in the same bait particle in a homogeneous or layered structure. Alternatively, the diet/toxicant may be used with a first encapsulating agent in a first bait particle with the chemiluminescent, visual attractant encapsulated in a second bait particle and distributed among the diet/toxicant bait particles.

Abstract: Molten, water soluble polymer is used as a binder for agriculturally effective active ingredients in a water free encapsulation process. For finely divided solid active ingredients, a solvent for the binder can be used to increase the amount of bound active ingredient. For water insoluble active ingredients, the binder provides a method for rendering the active ingredient dispersable in water.

Abstract: Baits useful against diabroticine mature and immature beetles contain (a) an insecticide and (b) a feeding stimulant containing corn germ.

Abstract: Agriculturally effective active ingredients are encapsulated in a "salt sensitive" polymeric binder. Normally, the binder is water soluble and would release the active ingredient when wetted. In the presence of a hardening salt to which the polymer is sensitive, the polymer becomes water insoluble for so long as it is in chemical contact with the hardening salt. This sensitivity is used to control the circumstances and timing of the release of the encapsulated active ingredient.

Abstract: Baits useful against diabroticine mature and immature beetles contain (a) an insecticide and (b) a feeding stimulant containing corn germ.

Abstract: Baits for diabroticine beetles are microspherical particles containing a homogeneous mixture of a toxicant for diabroticine beetles and a feeding stimulant in a binder containing a gelatin and a gum. Preferred formulations include carbaryl and buffalo gourd root powder.
