Abstract:
1. A composition for protecting wheat and barley from the harmful effects of a 6-(trisubstituted phenyl)-4-amino-2-pyridinecarboxylate herbicide, comprising a combination of a 6-(trisubstituted phenyl)-4-amino-2-pyridinecarboxylate herbicide according to the formula (I): wherein hal represents F, Cl or Br, and R represents methyl or ethyl, and its agriculturally acceptable salt, ester and amide derivatives, and a safener or a compatible herbicide capable of safening, selected from the group consisting of AD67, benoxacor, 2-CBSU, daimuron, dichlormid, dicyclonon, fenchlorazole-ethyl, fenclorim, fluxofenim, furilazole, isoxadifenethyl, mefenpyr-diethyl, naphthalic anhydride, oxabetrinil and mixtures thereof, wherein the weight ratio of the 6-(trisubstituted phenyl)-4-amino-2-pyridinecarboxylate herbicide to the safener or the compatible herbicide capable of safening in the combination is from about 2:1 to about 32:1; and wherein the combination exhibits an observed safening effect on the 6-(trisubstituted phenyl)-4-amino-2-pyridinecarboxylate herbicide that is greater than the expected safening effect.
