Abstract

To provide a highly active herbicidal composition to control undesired plants by synergistic herbicidal effects.
The present invention provides a herbicidal composition comprising (A) metobromuron or its salt, and (B) at least one herbicidal compound selected from the group consisting of chlorpropham, S-metolachlor, flufenacet, pyroxasulfone, nicosulfuron, fluazifop-P-butyl, prometryn, ioxynil, pendimethalin, trifluralin, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb and indanofan, or its alkyl ester or its salt; and a herbicidal method of using it.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A herbicidal composition comprising a synergistically effective amount of (A) metobromuron or its salt, and (B) at least one herbicidal compound selected from the group consisting of chlorpropham, flufenacet, pyroxasulfone, nicosulfuron, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb and indanofan, or its alkyl ester or its salt.

2. The herbicidal composition according to claim 1 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 200:1 to 1:40 by weight.

3. The herbicidal composition according to claim 1 , wherein (A) is metobromuron or its salt, and (B) is at least one herbicidal compound selected from the group consisting of chlorpropham, pyroxasulfone, nicosulfuron, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb and indanofan, or its salt.

4. The herbicidal composition according to claim 3 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 50:1 to 1:6 by weight.

5. The herbicidal composition according to claim 1 , wherein (A) is metobromuron or its salt, and (B) is pyroxasulfone or its salt.

6. The herbicidal composition according to claim 5 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 200:1 to 1:40 by weight.

7. The herbicidal composition according to claim 5 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 50:1 to 1:6 by weight.

8. The herbicidal composition according to claim 5 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 100:1 to 1:1 by weight.

9. The herbicidal composition according to claim 5 , wherein the mixing ratio of (A) to (B) is from 50:1 to 7:1 by weight.

10. A method for controlling undesired plants or inhibiting their growth, which comprises applying a herbicidally effective amount of (A) metobromuron or its salt, and a herbicidally effective amount of (B) at least one herbicidal compound selected from the group consisting of chlorpropham, flufenacet, pyroxasulfone, nicosulfuron, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb and indanofan, or its alkyl ester or its salt, to the undesired plants or to a place where they grow; wherein the applying of (A) and (B) together exhibits synergy.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein (A) is applied in an amount of from 100 to 4,000 g/ha, and (B) is applied in an amount of from 20 to 4,000 g/ha.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein (A) and (B) are applied as mixed in a weight ratio of from 200:1 to 1:40.

13. The method according to claim 10 , wherein (A) is metobromuron or its salt, and (B) is at least one herbicidal compound selected from the group consisting of chlorpropham, pyroxasulfone, nicosulfuron, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb and indanofan, or its salt.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein (A) and (B) are applied as mixed in a weight ratio of from 50:1 to 1:6.

15. The method according to claim 10 , wherein (A) is metobromuron or its salt, and (B) is pyroxasulfone or its salt.

16. The method according to claim 15 , wherein (A) is applied in an amount of from 100 to 4,000 g/ha, and (B) is applied in an amount of from 20 to 4,000 g/ha.

17. The method according to claim 15 , wherein (A) is applied in an amount of from 60 to 1,500 g/ha, and (B) is applied in an amount of from 25 to 1,500 g/ha.

18. The method according to claim 15 , wherein (A) and (B) are applied as mixed in a weight ratio of from 200:1 to 1:40.

19. The method according to claim 15 , wherein (A) and (B) are applied as mixed in a weight ratio of from 100:1 to 1:1.

20. The method according to claim 15 , wherein (A) and (B) are applied as mixed in a weight ratio of from 50:1 to 7:1.
