HERBICIDE COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING PALMAROSA(CYMBOPOGON MARTINI) ESSENTIAL OIL

摘要

PURPOSE: A herbicide composition containing Palmarosa(Cymbopogon martini)-derived natural essential oil is provided to ensure high herbicidal activity. CONSTITUTION: A foliar herbicide composition contains Palmarosa(Cymbopogon martini)-derived natural essential oil. The natural essential oil contains volatile organic compounds of geraniol, citral, nerol, and geranyl acetate. A method for identifying high herbicidal function the natural essential oil comprises: a step of testing herbicidal function of the natural essential oil; a step of analyzing volatile organic compounds contained in the natural essential oil; a step of testing herbicidal function of detected volatile organic compound; a step of testing the herbicidal function of the natural essential oil in a greenhouse condition; and a step of testing the herbicidal function of the natural essential oil in a field condition.
