Use of seed treatment agents comprising conazole or triazole fungicides e.g. as safeners for avoiding or reducing phytotoxic effects of herbicides e.g. carbamate, thiocarbamate and haloacetanilide, on crops, preferably cultural crops

摘要

Use of seed treatment agents comprising conazole or triazole fungicides as safeners for avoiding or reducing the phytotoxic effects of herbicides on crops, preferably cultural crops, is claimed. Independent claims are included for: (1) crop protective agents comprising the seed treatment agents optionally in the form of the seed dressing formulation, in combination with herbicides and, optionally formulation auxiliaries; (2) a method of protecting cultural or useful plants against phytotoxic effects of herbicides, which cause damage to plants, comprising applying the active agents comprising conazole or triazole fungicides as safener on the seeds of the useful plants; and (3) a method for the selective control of weeds in crops of useful plants, comprising applying the seed treatment agents, optionally in the form of a seed dressing formulation before, after or simultaneously with the seed of the useful plants with herbicides, on seeds, parts of plants, soil or water. ACTIVITY : Plant Protectant; Herbicide. MECHANISM OF ACTION : None given.
