Abstract: An aqueous spray composition comprising about 0.0001 to 1 wt/wt % of a water-soluble poly(ethylene oxide) having a molecular weight greater than about 5×105 Daltons and at least about 0.05 wt/wt % of a surfactant selected from the group consisting of a sulfonate surfactant and a sulfate surfactant. Said compositions exhibit reduced spray drift. Said compositions are employed in methods for increasing the median diameter of spray droplets and have utility in agricultural spray applications.

Abstract: There are provided compositions comprising a concentrated amount of an herbicidally active agent, or combination of agents, in a solid state suspended in a water immiscible solvent containing an anionic surfactant and a nonionic surfactant and optionally containing an antifoam agent and a suspending or thickening agent. Upon dilution with hard or soft water, said compositions readily form sprayable herbicidal emulsions.
