C.1) herbicides of the group of acetolactate synthase inhibitors which are selected from the group of triazolopyrimidine herbicides, sulfonylamino-carbonyl-triazolinone herbicides and pyrimidinyl(thio) benzoate herbicides, C.2) herbicides of the group of protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitors, C.3) herbicides of the group of synthetic auxins, C.4) herbicides of the group of microtubule inhibitors, C.5) herbicides of the group of acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitors, C.6) herbicides of the group of photosystem II inhibitors, C.7) herbicides of the group of pigment synthesis inhibitors, and C.8) herbicides of the group of VLCFA inhibitors which are selected from the group of oxyacetamide herbicides and chloroacetamide herbicides.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A herbicidal combination comprising components
a) a herbicide A which is 2-chloro-5-[3,6-dihydro-3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1-(2H)-pyrimidinyl]-4-fluoro-N-[[methyl-(1-methylethyl)-amino]sulfonyl]benzamide,
b) a herbicide B which is glufosinate or one of its salts, and
c) at least one herbicide C different from herbicides A and B which is selected from the group of diclosulam, cloransulam, flumetsulam, thiencarbazone, flumioxazin, butafenacil, carfentrazone, sulfentrazone, acifluorfen, fomesafen, lactofen, oxyfluorfen, quinclorac, fluroxypyr, 2,4-D, pendimethalin, fenoxaprop, haloxyfop, clethodim, sethoxydim, profoxydim, atrazine, metribuzin, bentazone, benzobicyclon, benzofenap, bicyclopyrone, clomazone, isoxaflutole, mesotrione, pyrasulfotole, pyrazolynate, pyrazoxyfen, sulcotrione, tefuryltrione, tembotrione, topramezone, acetochlor, metolachlor, metazachlor, and flufenacet and
or an agriculturally acceptable enantiomer, salt or ester thereof, wherein a herbicidal mixture of components a and b in combination with component c is synergistic.

2. The herbicidal combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the herbicide B is glufosinate ammonium.

3. The herbicidal combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the herbicide C is selected from the group of sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, acetochlor, metolachlor, pendimethalin, quinclorac, fluroxypyr, atrazine, benzobicyclon, benzofenap, mesotrione, pyrasulfotole, pyrazolynate, pyrazoxyfen, sulcotrione, tefuryltrione, tembotrione, topramezone, diclosulam, isoxaflutole, bicyclopyrone, and 2,4-D; or its agriculturally acceptable enantiomer, salt or ester thereof.

4. The herbicidal combination as claimed in claim 1 comprising at least one further herbicide D different from herbicides B and C which is selected from chloroacetamide herbicides, photosystem II inhibitors, pigment synthesis inhibitors, ACC inhibitors, dinitroaniline herbicides and synthetic auxins.

5. The herbicidal combination as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a safener which is selected from the group consisting of benoxacor, cloquintocet, cyprosulfamide, dichlormid, fenclorim, fenchlorazole, furilazole, isoxadifen, mefenpyr, naphthalic acid anhydride, 4-(dichloroacetyl)-1-oxa-4-azaspiro[4.5]decane and 2,2,5-trimethyl-3-(dichloroacetyl)-1,3-oxazolidine.

6. The herbicidal combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the herbicide C is selected from the group of sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, acetochlor, metolachlor, pendimethalin, quinclorac, fluroxypyr, atrazine, benzobicyclon, mesotrione, 10 pyrasulfotole, pyrazolynate, sulcotrione, tembotrione, topramezone, diclosulam, isoxaflutole, bicyclopyrone, and 2,4-D; or its agriculturally acceptable enantiomer, salt or ester thereof.

7. A method for burn-down treatment of undesirable vegetation in crops, comprising applying a herbicidal combination according to claim 1 to a locus where crops will be planted before planting or emergence of the crop.

8. A method for controlling undesirable vegetation, which method comprises applying a herbicidal combination according to claim 1 to a locus where undesirable vegetation is present or is expected to be present.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the herbicide B is glufosinate ammonium.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the herbicide C is selected from the group of sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, acetochlor, metolachlor, pendimethalin, quinclorac, fluroxypyr, atrazine, benzobicyclon, benzofenap, mesotrione, pyrasulfotole, pyrazolynate, pyrazoxyfen, sulcotrione, tefuryltrione, tembotrione, topramezone, diclosulam, isoxaflutole, bicyclopyrone, 2,4-D and their agriculturally acceptable enantiomers, salts and esters.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the herbicide C is selected from the group of sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, acetochlor, metolachlor, pendimethalin, quinclorac, fluroxypyr, atrazine, benzobicyclon, mesotrione, pyrasulfotole, pyrazolynate, sulcotrione, tembotrione, topramezone, diclosulam, isoxaflutole, bicyclopyrone, 2,4-5 D; or its agriculturally acceptable enantiomer, salt or ester thereof.
