A liquid concentrate herbicidal microemulsion composition is provided comprising(i) water;(ii) a water-soluble herbicide;(iii) an oil-soluble cyclohexenone or aryloxyphenoxypropionate graminicide in a weight ratio to the water-soluble herbicide of about 1:50 to about 1:1;(iv) a substantially water-immiscible organic solvent selected such that the graminicide has an organic solvent/water partition coefficient, expressed as a logarithm, of about 4 or greater, in a weight ratio to the graminicide of about 3:1 to about 30:1;(v) an emulsifying system comprising one or more surfactants each having a tertiary amine functional group, in an amount not exceeding about 10% by weight but sufficient to provide acceptable physical stability of the microemulsion;(vi) zero to a stabilizing amount of one or more water-soluble chlorides selected from hydrochloric acid, alkali metal chlorides, ammonium chloride, low molecular weight organic ammonium chlorides and quaternary ammonium chloride surfactants; and(vii) a dispersing system comprising one or more nonionic surfactants, in a total amount not exceeding about 5% by weight but sufficient to provide acceptable dispersion of the microemulsion upon dilution thereof in a suitable volume of water for application to plants and not sufficient to destabilize the microemulsion.Compositions of the invention wherein the water-soluble herbicide is a salt of glyphosate are particularly useful for controlling unwanted glyphosate-tolerant plants of the grass family in glyphosate-tolerant broadleaf crops. |
