- In one embodiment, the pesticide composition of the present invention further comprises one or more water conditioners, such as for example, chelating agents, such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, complexing agents such as ammonium sulfate, and pH adjusting agents, such as citric acid and polyacrylic acid.
- In one embodiment, the pesticide composition of the present invention comprises, based on 100 pbw of such composition, from about 0.1 to about 3 pbw, more typically from about 0.7 to about 2.5 pbw, of one or more water conditioners, typically ammonium sulfate.
- The pesticide composition of the present invention may, optionally, further comprise other ingredients, such as one or more additional surfactants, one or more thickeners, such as polysaccharide thickeners, and polyacrylamide thickeners, as well as antifoams, spreaders, and drift control agents.
- The adjuvant composition of the present invention is made by combining and mixing the components of such composition.
- The pesticide composition of the present invention is made by mixing the ingredients together. In one embodiment, the pesticide composition is made by combining and mixing the adjuvant composition of the present invention, a pesticide compound, and water. Alternatively, the pesticide composition is made by combining and mixing the separate components of the adjuvant composition, a pesticide, and water.
- The pesticide composition of the present invention is useful for treating plant to control pests, such as for example, depending on the choice of pesticide, killing, discouraging the growth of, or repelling plants, bacteria, fungi, insects, or other pests.
- In one embodiment, the pesticide composition is spray applied to foliage of a target plant at a rate of from about 0.5 pint/acre to about 3 pints/acre, more typically from about 0.5 pint/acre to about 2.5 pints/acre.
