METHODS FOR REDUCING THE PHYTOTOXICITY OF HERBICIDES USING PRE-TREATMENT WITH ANTIDOTES

摘要

The present invention provides a method of reducing phytotoxicity to crops (especially maize) caused by a herbicidal benzoylisoxazole and/or dione derivative of formula (I) or an agriculturally acceptable salt or metal complex thereof; which method comprises applying to the locus of the crop an antidotally effective amount of an antidote compound, optionally with a partner herbicide.
