As a novel, agricultural or horticultural granular composition having a low foamability and comprising a granular wettable powder, that is, water-dispersible granules which can have an improved disintegrability in water, an improved dispersibility in water and an improved suspensibility in water, irrespective of the nature and the property of the agrochemically active ingredient as incorporated, there is provided an agricultural or horticultural granular composition comprising as the essential components, (a) at least one of an agrochemically active ingredient, (b) at least one of a surfactant selected from a sulfonate-type surfactant, a sulfate-type surfactant and a phosphate-type surfactant, and (c) at least one of a metal salt of a fatty acid of 6 to 28 carbon atoms. An aqueous dispersion which may be prepared by diluting the composition of the present invention with water has a low foamability. When the present composition is mixed with water, the granules of the present composition can rapidly disintegrate in water and can separate into finely-divided disperse particles which are kept suspended well in water.
