Abstract

A herbicidal composition comprising: at least one herbicide; at least one carrier; at least one polycarboxylate; at least one taurate; at least one lignosulfate; at least one urea-formaldehyde polymer condensate and Cloquintocet-mexyl. A process comprising mixing: at least one herbicide; at least one carrier; at least one polycarboxylate; at least one taurate; at least one lignosulfate; at least one urea-formaldehyde polymer condensate and Cloquintocet-mexyl. A herbicidal composition produced by the process comprising mixing: at least one herbicide; at least one carrier; at least one polycarboxylate; at least one taurate; at least one lignosulfate; at least one urea-formaldehyde polymer condensate; and Cloquintocet-mexyl. A process for controlling weeds or grasses or both in crops of useful plants said process comprising treating said crops or the area where said crops are to be planted with an effective amount of a herbicidal composition comprising: at least one herbicide; at least one carrier; at least one polycarboxylate at least one taurate; at least one lignosulfate; at least one urea-formaldehyde polymer condensate; and Cloquintocet-mexyl. A process for controlling weeds or grasses or both in crops of useful plants said process comprising treating said crops or the area where said crops are to be planted with an effective amount of a herbicidal composition produced by the process comprising mixing: at least one herbicide; at least one carrier; at least one polycarboxylate; at least one taurate; at least one lignosulfate; at least one urea-formaldehyde polymer condensate; and Cloquintocet-mexyl.
