ACTIVITY : Pesticide; Herbicide. A composition (C') comprising glyophosate (480 g a.e./l) and etheramine was prepared and tested for inhibition of velvetleaf growth. A control was prepared using Roundup Ultramax (RTM) composition. (C') and control (100 g/ha) inhibited velvetleaf growth by 24.2 and 14.2 %, respectively. MECHANISM OF ACTION : None given.
