  • Early Applications of Encapsulated Acetamides for Reduced Injury in Crops
    Publication number: 20220386601
    Abstract: Methods of reducing injury to crop foliage and achieving weed control using encapsulated acetamide herbicides in pre-plant or preemergence crop plant applications are described. A composition comprising a first population of a particulate microencapsulated acetamide herbicide and a second population of a particulate microencapsulated acetamide herbicide is described wherein the application mixture exhibits a bimodal acetamide release profile. The compositions provide reduced crop injury through controlled herbicide release.
    Type: Application
    Filed: June 22, 2022
    Publication date: December 8, 2022
