Abstract: The invention relates to an agrochemical composition comprising a salt of dicamba and an N—C2-C15-alkyl pyrrolidone. It also relates to a method of controlling undesired vegetation, and/or for regulating the growth of plants, wherein the agrochemical composition is allowed to act on the respective pests, their environment, or the crop plants to be protected from the respective pest, on the soil and/or on the crop plants and/or on their environment; to a method for producing the agrochemical composition; to an adjuvant composition for increasing the solubility of the salt of dicamba in an aqueous composition comprising an N—C2-C15-alkyl pyrrolidone.

Abstract: Provided herein are microcapsules comprising a capsule core and a capsule shell. The capsule shell includes a core surrounding a layer of a polyvinyl alcohol and an adjacent layer of a polyoxazoline, and the capsule core includes a water-insoluble pesticide. Further provided herein is a process for producing the microcapsule, including: a) preparation of an oil-in-water emulsion with a disperse phase which includes the pesticide and an aqueous continuous phase and the polyvinyl alcohol, and b) subsequent addition of one or more of the polyoxazoline. The process relates to a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi, undesired plant growth, and/or undesired insect or mite attack, and/or for regulating the growth of plants, wherein the microcapsules act on the respective pests, their environment, the crop plants to be protected from the respective pest, on the soil, on undesired plants, on the crop plants, and/or on the environment of each plant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a mixture comprising, as active compounds 1) a herbicide (compound I) selected from the group of synthetic auxins consisting of (i) Phenoxy-carboxylic-acids selected from clomeprop, 2,4-D, 2,4-DB, dichlorprop, MCPA, MCPB and mecoprop; (ii) Benzoic acids selected from chloramben, dicamba and 2,3,6-TBA; (iii) Pyridine carboxylic acids selected from aminopyralid, clopyralid, fluoroxypyr, picloram and triclopyr; (iv) Quinoline carboxylic acids selected from quinclorac and quinmerac; (v) benazolin-ethyl; and (vi) amino-cylopyrachlor; and 2) a fungicide (compound II) selected from the group of strobilurines consisting of pyraclostrobin, orysastrobin, azoxystrobin, dimoxystrobin, enestroburin, fluoxastrobin, kresoxim-methyl, metominostrobin, picoxystrobin, pyribencarb, trifloxystrobin, 2-(2-(6-(3-chloro-2-methyl-phenoxy)-5-fluoro-pyrimidin-4-yloxy)-phenyl)-2-methoxyimino-N-methyl-acetamide, 3-methoxy-2-(2-(N-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-cyclopropane-carboximidoylsulfanylmethyl)-phen
