20080242548 | Method of microencapsulating an agricultural active having a high melting point and uses for such materials - A method of producing a controlled release form of an agricultural active material includes the provision of an organic liquid composition in which the active is present, but where the liquid composition is free from aromatic solvents and is maintained below the normal melting point of the active. The liquid composition is formed into small droplets and the droplets are enclosed by a non-water soluble shell to provide microcapsules, the shell of which is designed to release the agricultural active at a pre-selected controlled rate when the microcapsule is exposed to natural environmental conditions. Controlled release forms of agricultural actives are also provided. | 10-02-2008 |
20080305952 | CROPPING SYSTEMS FOR MANAGING WEEDS - The invention provides cropping systems for managing weeds in crop environments. The cropping systems comprise, in one embodiment, transgenic plants that display tolerance to an auxin-like herbicide such as dicamba. Method for minimizing the development of herbicide resistant weeds are also provided. | 12-11-2008 |
20090105077 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR IMPROVING PLANT HEALTH - The present invention provides methods and compositions for improving plant health. In particular, application of dicamba or another substrate of DMO, or metabolites thereof including DCSA, to a plant confers tolerance to, or defense against, abiotic or biotic stresses such as oxidative stress including herbicide application, and plant disease, and enhances crop yield. Such application may be in combination with the application of another herbicide such as glyphosate. | 04-23-2009 |
20100234228 | NOVEL SURFACTANTS AND FORMULATIONS - A herbicidal composition is provided comprising an aqueous solution of N-phosphonomethylglycine, predominantly in the form of the potassium salt thereof, at a concentration of at least 300 g a.e./l of the composition; and a surfactant component in solution or stable suspension, emulsion, or dispersion in the water, comprising one or more surfactants in a total amount of about 20 to about 300 g/l of the composition, wherein the composition has a viscosity of less than about 250 centipoise at 0° C. or a Gardner color value less than 10. | 09-16-2010 |
20110034332 | Herbicidal compositions containing N-phosphonomethyl glycine and an auxin herbicide - Herbicidal compositions are provided which cause rapid symptomology while delivering long term control of regrowth of plants. The herbicidal concentrate compositions comprise N-phosphonomethylglycine or a herbicidal derivative thereof, an auxin herbicide or a herbicidal derivative thereof, and at least one surfactant. Also provided is a method for killing or controlling the growth of certain plants by contacting the foliage of the plants with the diluted concentrate composition. | 02-10-2011 |
20110067134 | SOYBEAN TRANSGENIC EVENT MON 87708 AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - The invention provides a transgenic soybean event MON 87708 plant and plants, plant cells, seeds, plant parts, and commodity products derived from event MON 87708. The invention also provides polynucleotides specific for event MON 87708 and plants, plant cells, seeds, plant parts, and commodity products comprising polynucleotides specific for event MON 87708.

20110152096 | METHODS FOR WEED CONTROL - The invention provides methods for weed control with dicamba and related herbicides. It was found that pre-emergent applications of dicamba at or near planting could be made without significant crop damage or yield loss. The techniques can be combined with the herbicide glyphosate to improve the degree of weed control and permit control of herbicide tolerant weeds. | 06-23-2011 |
20110245080 | CROPPING SYSTEMS FOR MANAGING WEEDS - The invention provides cropping systems for managing weeds in crop environments. The cropping systems comprise, in one embodiment, transgenic plants that display tolerance to an auxin-like herbicide such as dicamba. Method for minimizing the development of herbicide resistant weeds are also provided. | 10-06-2011 |
20120172220 | N-PHOSPHONOMETHYLGLYCINE GUANIDINE DERIVATIVE SALTS - The present invention provides N-phosphonomethylglycine guanidine salts.
