Title: Oil Suspension Concentrate

Description:
The present invention relates to the field of the formulations of crop protection agents. In particular, the invention relates to liquid formulations in the form of oil suspension concentrates comprising herbicidally active compounds from the group of the pyridylsulfonylureas. 
     Active compounds for crop protection are generally not employed in their pure form. Depending on the area of use and the type of use, and also on physical, chemical and biological parameters, the active compound is employed in a mixture with customary auxiliaries and additives as an active compound formulation. Also known are combinations with further active compounds for broadening the activity spectrum and/or for protecting the crop plants (for example with safeners, antidotes). 
     In general, formulations of active compounds for crop protection should have high chemical and physical stability, should be easy to apply and user friendly and have a broad biological action with high selectivity. 
     Herbicidally active compounds from the group of the sulfonylureas generally have high chemical reactivity and tend to suffer from chemical degradation, for example by hydrolysis. 
     One option of formulating chemically unstable active compounds is the preparation of solid formulations. Thus, formulations of active compounds from the group of the sulfonylureas in the form of powders, granules and tablets are known (for example in EP 764404, WO 9834482, WO 9313658). However, the processes for preparing solid formulations, for example in the form of granules and tablets, are generally complicated, in particular when auxiliaries and additives or active compounds having a low melting point are incorporated. Moreover, solid formulations are generally more difficult to apply and less user friendly. 
     Liquid formulations of sulfonylureas are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,599,412, U.S. Pat. No. 4,683,000, U.S. Pat. No. 4,671,817, EP 0245058, WO 01/82693, EP 0313317, EP 0514768, EP 0163598 and EP 0514769. Pyridylsulfonylureas are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,476,936. 
     It was an object of the present invention to provide an improved formulation of crop protection agents having a high chemical and physical stability. 
     This object is achieved by the specific oil suspension concentrate of the present invention. 
     Accordingly, the present invention relates to an oil suspension concentrate comprising
     a) one or more herbicidally active compounds from the group of the pyridylsulfonylureas in suspended form, and   b) one or more organic solvents.   

     In addition, the oil suspension concentrate according to the invention may optionally comprise, as further components:
     c) one or more safeners,   d) one or more sulfosuccinates,   e) one or more agrochemically active compounds different from a) and c),   f) one or more inorganic salts, and   g) customary auxiliaries and additives.   

     The term oil suspension concentrate (OD) is to be understood as meaning a suspension concentrate based on organic solvents. Here, one or more active compounds are suspended in the organic solvent; further active compounds may be dissolved in the organic solvent. 
     In the oil suspension concentrate according to the invention, the pyridylsulfonylurea a) is present in suspended form in the organic solvent. This means that the main proportion (in % by weight) of pyridylsulfonylurea a) is present undissolved in finely distributed form and a minor part of the pyridylsulfonylurea a) may be present in dissolved form. Preferably, more than 50% by weight, particularly preferably more than 80% by weight, of the pyridylsulfonylurea a) is suspended in the organic solvent, in each case based on the total amount of pyridylsulfonylurea a) in the oil suspension concentrate according to the invention. 
     Preferred pyridylsulfonylureas a) are dioxazinepyridylsulfonylureas, in particular those of the formula (I)

     For the purpose of the present invention, the pyridylsulfonylureas contained as component a) in the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention are in each case to be understood as meaning all use forms, such as acids, esters, salts and isomers, such as stereoisomers and optical isomers. Thus, in addition to neutral compounds, their salts for example with inorganic and/or organic counterions are in each case meant to be included. Thus, sulfonylureas are capable of forming salts, for example, in which the hydrogen of the —SO 2 —NH— group is replaced by an agriculturally suitable cation. These salts are, for example, metal salts, in particular alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts, in particular sodium and potassium salts, or else ammonium salts or salts with organic amines. Salt formation may also take place by addition of an acid to basic groups, such as, for example, amino and alkylamino. Acids suitable for this purpose are strong inorganic and organic acids, for example HCl, HBr, H 2 SO 4  or HNO 3 . Preferred esters are the alkyl esters, in particular the C 1 -C 10 -alkyl esters, such as methyl esters. 
     Whenever the term “acyl radical” is used in this description, this means the radical of an organic acid which is formally formed by removing an OH group from the organic acid, for example the radical of a carboxylic acid and radicals of acids derived therefrom, such as thiocarboxylic acid, unsubstituted or N-substituted iminocarboxylic acids or the radicals of carbonic monoesters, unsubstituted or N-substituted carbaminic acids, sulfonic acids, sulfinic acids, phosphonic acids, phosphinic acids. 
     An acyl radical is preferably formyl or acyl from the group consisting of CO—R z , CS—R z , CO—OR z , CS—OR z , CS—SR z , SOR z  and SO 2 R z , where R z  is in each case a C 1 -C 10 -hydrocarbon radical, such as C 1 -C 10 -alkyl or C 6 -C 10 -aryl, which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by one or more substituents from the group consisting of halogen, such as F, Cl, Br, I, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, nitro, cyano and alkylthio, or R z  is aminocarbonyl or aminosulfonyl, where the two last-mentioned radicals are unsubstituted, N-monosubstituted or N,N-disubstituted, for example by substituents from the group consisting of alkyl and aryl. 
     Acyl is, for example, formyl, haloalkylcarbonyl, alkylcarbonyl, such as (C 1 -C 4 )-alkyl-carbonyl, phenylcarbonyl, where the phenyl ring may be substituted, or alkyloxy-carbonyl, such as (C 1 -C 4 )-alkyloxycarbonyl, phenyloxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, alkylsulfonyl, such as (C 1 -C 4 )-alkylsulfonyl, alkylsulfinyl, such as C 1 -C 4 -(alkylsulfinyl), N-alkyl-1-iminoalkyl, such as N—(C 1 -C 4 )-1-imino-(C 1 -C 4 )-alkyl, and other radicals of organic acids. 
     A hydrocarbon radical is a straight-chain, branched or cyclic and saturated or unsaturated aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon radical, for example alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or aryl. 
     A hydrocarbon radical has preferably 1 to 40 carbon atoms, with preference 1 to 30 carbon atoms; with particular preference, a hydrocarbon radical is alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl having up to 12 carbon atoms or cycloalkyl having 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 ring atoms or phenyl. 
     Aryl is a mono-, bi- or polycyclic aromatic system, for example phenyl, naphthyl, tetrahydronaphthyl, indenyl, indanyl, pentalenyl, fluorenyl and the like, preferably phenyl. 
     A heterocyclic radical or ring (heterocyclyl) can be saturated, unsaturated or heteroaromatic and unsubstituted or substituted; it preferably contains one or more heteroatoms in the ring, preferably from the group consisting of N, O and S; it is preferably an aliphatic heterocyclyl radical having 3 to 7 ring atoms or a heteroaromatic radical having 5 or 6 ring atoms and contains 1, 2 or 3 heteroatoms. The heterocyclic radical can, for example, be a heteroaromatic radical or ring (heteroaryl), such as, for example, a mono-, bi- or polycyclic aromatic system in which at least one ring contains one or more heteroatoms, for example pyridyl, pyrimidinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrazinyl, triazinyl, thienyl, thiazolyl, oxazolyl, furyl, pyrrolyl, pyrazolyl and imidazolyl, or it is a partially or fully hydrogenated radical, such as oxiranyl, oxetanyl, pyrrolidyl, piperidyl, piperazinyl, triazolyl, dioxolanyl, morpholinyl, tetrahydrofuryl. Preference is given to pyrimidinyl and triazinyl. Suitable substituents for a substituted heterocyclic radical are the substituents mentioned further below, and additionally also oxo. The oxo group may also be present at the hetero ring atoms, which may exist in different oxidation states, for example in the case of N and S. 
     Substituted radicals, such as substituted hydrocarbon radicals, for example substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, phenyl and benzyl, or substituted heterocyclyl or heteroaryl, are, for example, a substituted radical which is derived from an unsubstituted parent compound, where the substituents are, for example, one or more, preferably 1, 2 or 3, radicals from the group consisting of halogen, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, alkylthio, hydroxyl, amino, nitro, carboxyl, cyano, azido, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylcarbonyl, formyl, carbamoyl, mono- and dialkylaminocarbonyl, substituted amino, such as acylamino, mono- and dialkylamino, and alkylsulfinyl, haloalkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, haloalkylsulfonyl and, in the case of cyclic radicals, also alkyl and haloalkyl, and unsaturated aliphatic radicals which correspond to the saturated hydrocarbon-containing radicals mentioned, such as alkenyl, alkynyl, alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, etc. Among radicals with carbon atoms, preference is given to those having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, in particular 1 or 2 carbon atoms. Preference is generally given to substituents from the group consisting of halogen, for example fluorine and chlorine, (C 1 -C 4 )-alkyl, preferably methyl or ethyl, (C 1 -C 4 )-haloalkyl, preferably trifluoromethyl, (C 1 -C 4 )-alkoxy, preferably methoxy or ethoxy, (C 1 -C 4 )-haloalkoxy, nitro and cyano. Particular preference is given here to the substituents methyl, methoxy and chlorine.

     Cycloalkyl is a carbocyclic saturated ring system having preferably 3-6 carbon atoms, for example cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl. 
     The carbon skeleton of the carbon-containing radicals, such as alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, alkylamino and alkylthio and the corresponding unsaturated and/or substituted radicals may in each case be straight-chain or branched. In these radicals, preference is given to the lower carbon skeletons having, for example, 1 to 6 carbon atoms and, in the case of unsaturated groups, 2 to 6 carbon atoms, unless specified otherwise. Alkyl radicals, also in the composite meanings such as alkoxy, haloalkyl, etc., are, for example, methyl, ethyl, n- or isopropyl, n-, iso-, t- or 2-butyl, pentyls, hexyls, such as n-hexyl, isohexyl and 1,3-dimethylbutyl, heptyls, such as n-heptyl, 1-methylhexyl and 1,4-dimethylpentyl; alkenyl and alkynyl radicals have the meaning of the possible unsaturated radicals which correspond to the alkyl radicals; alkenyl is, for example, allyl, 1-methylprop-2-en-1-yl, 2-methylprop-2-en-1-yl, but-2-en-1-yl, but-3-en-1-yl, 1-methylbut-3-en-1-yl and 1-methylbut-2-en-1-yl; alkynyl is, for example, propargyl, but-2-yn-1-yl, but-3-yn-1-yl, 1-methylbut-3-yn-1-yl. 
     Halogen is, for example, fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine. Haloalkyl, -alkenyl and -alkynyl is alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl, respectively, which is partially or fully substituted by halogen, preferably by fluorine, chlorine and/or bromine, in particular by fluorine or chlorine, for example CF 3 , CHF 2 , CH 2 F, CF 3 CF 2 , CH 2 FCHCl, CCl 3 , CHCl 2 , CH 2 CH 2 Cl; haloalkoxy is, for example, OCF 3 , OCHF 2 , OCH 2 F, CF 3 CF 2 O, OCH 2 CF 3  and OCH 2 CH 2 Cl; this applies correspondingly to haloalkenyl and other halogen-substituted radicals. 
     The herbicides (a) inhibit the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS) and thus the protein synthesis in plants. The application rate of the herbicides (a) may vary within a wide range, for example between 0.001 g and 500 g of a.i./ha (hereinbelow, a.i./ha means “active ingredient per hectare”=based on 100% pure active compound). On applications using application rates of from 0.01 g to 200 g of a.i./ha of the herbicides (a), preferably the compounds I-1 to I-145, a relatively broad spectrum of harmful plants, for example of annual and perennial monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds and also unwanted crop plants is controlled by the pre-emergence and the post-emergence method. In the combinations according to the invention, the application rates are generally lower, for example in the range of from 0.001 g to 100 g of a.i./ha, preferably from 0.005 g to 50 g of a.i./ha, particularly preferably from 0.01 g to 9 g of a.i./ha. 
     The herbicides (a) are suitable, for example, for controlling harmful plants in crop plants, for example in economically important farm crops, for example monocotyledonous farm crops, such as cereals (for example wheat, barley, rye, oats), rice, corn, millet, or dicotyledonous farm crops, such as sugar beet, oilseed rape, cotton, sunflowers and leguminous plants, for example of the genera  Glycine  (for example  Glycine max . (soybean), such as nontransgenic  Glycine max . (for example conventional cultivars, such as STS cultivars) or transgenic  Glycine max . (for example RR soybean or LL soybean) and crossbreeds thereof),  Phaseolus, Pisum, Vicia  and  Arachis , or vegetable crops from various botanical groups, such as potato, leek, cabbage, carrot, tomato, onion, and also permanent crops and plantation crops, such as pome fruit and stone fruit, berry fruit, grapevines, Hevea, bananas, sugar cane, coffee, tea, citrus fruit, nut plantations, lawn, palm plantations and forest plantations. For the use of herbicide combinations (a)+(e), these crops are likewise preferred. Of particular interest for the herbicide combinations (a)+(e4) are especially mutant crops tolerant to the herbicides (e4) and tolerant transgenic crops, preferably corn, rice, cereals, oilseed rape and soybean, in particular soybean, which are resistant to imidazolinone herbicides, glufosinate or glyphosate. 
     The herbicides (a) can also be employed nonselectively for controlling unwanted vegetation, for example in permanent crops and plantation crops, on roadsides, squares, industrial plants, airports or railway tracks, or for the burn-down application, for example in farm crops, for example monocotyledonous farm crops, such as cereals (for example wheat, barley, rye, oats), rice, corn, millet, or dicotyledonous farm crops, such as sugar beet, oilseed rape, cotton, sunflowers and leguminous plants, for example of the genera  Glycine  (for example  Glycine max . (soybean), such as nontransgenic  Glycine max . (for example conventional cultivars, such as STS cultivars) or transgenic  Glycine max . (for example RR-soybean or LL-soybean) and crossbreeds thereof),  Phaseolus, Pisum, Vicia  and  Arachis , or vegetable crops from various botanical groups, such as potato, leek, cabbage, carrot, tomato, onion. 
     The oil suspension concentrates according to the invention comprise the herbicidally active compounds a) from the group of the pyridylsulfonylureas in general in amounts of from 0.01 to 50% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 30% by weight; here and in the entire description, the term “% by weight” refers to the relative weight of the component in question based on the total weight of the formulation, unless defined otherwise.

The fatty acid esters are preferably esters of C 10 -C 22 -, with preference C 12 -C 20 -, fatty acids. The C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters are, for example, esters of unsaturated or saturated C 10 -C 22 -fatty acids, in particular those having an even number of carbon atoms, for example erucic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid, and in particular C 18 -fatty acids, such as stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid or linolenic acid.
       Examples of fatty acid esters such as C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters are glycerol and glycol esters of fatty acids such as C 10 -C 22 -fatty acids, or transesterification products thereof, for example fatty acid alkyl esters such as C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid C 1 -C 20 -alkyl esters, which can be obtained, for example, by transesterification of the abovementioned glycerol or glycol fatty acid esters such as C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters with C 1 -C 20 -alcohols (for example methanol, ethanol, propanol or butanol).

Animal oils b) are generally known and commercially available. For the purpose of the present invention, the term “animal oils” is to be understood as meaning, for example, oils of animal origin such as whale oil, cod-liver oil, musk oil or mink oil.   Vegetable oils b) are generally known and commercially available. For the purpose of the present invention, the term “vegetable oils” is to be understood as meaning, for example, oils of oleaginous plant species, such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, cottonseed oil, linseed oil, coconut oil, palm oil, thistle oil, walnut oil, arachis oil, olive oil or castor oil, in particular rapeseed oil, where the vegetable oils also include their transesterification products, for example alkyl esters, such as rapeseed oil methyl ester or rapeseed oil ethyl ester.   The vegetable oils are preferably esters of C 10 -C 22 -, preferably C 12 -C 20 -, fatty acids. The C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters are, for example, esters of unsaturated or saturated C 10 -C 22 -fatty acids having, in particular, an even number of carbon atoms, for example erucic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid and in particular C 18 -fatty acids such as stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid or linolenic acid.   Examples of vegetable oils are C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters of glycerol or glycol with C 10 -C 22 -fatty acids, or C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid C 1 -C 20 -alkyl esters which can be obtained, for example, by transesterification of the glycerol or glycol C 10 -C 22 -fatty acid esters mentioned above with C 1 -C 20 -alcohols (for example methanol, ethanol, propanol or butanol). The transesterification can be carried out by known methods as described, for example, in Römpp Chemie Lexikon, 9th edition, volume 2, page 1343, Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.   The vegetable oils can be contained in the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention for example in the form of commercially available vegetable oils, in particular rapeseed oils, such as rapeseed oil methyl ester, for example Phytorob® B (Novance, France), Edenor® MESU and the Agnique® ME series (Cognis, Germany), the Radia® series (ICI), the Prilube® series (Petrofina), or biodiesel or in the form of commercially available plant-oil-containing formulation additives, in particular those based on rapeseed oils, such as rapeseed oil methyl esters, for example Hasten® (Victorian Chemical Company, Australia, hereinbelow referred to as Hasten, main ingredient: rapeseed oil ethyl ester), Actirob® B (Novance, France, hereinbelow referred to as Actirob B, main ingredient: rapeseed oil methyl ester), Rako-Binol® (Bayer AG, Germany, hereinbelow referred to as Rako-Binol, main ingredient: rapeseed oil), Renol® (Stefes, Germany, hereinbelow referred to as Renol, vegetable oil ingredient: rapeseed oil methyl ester) or Stefes Mero® (Stefes, Germany, hereinbelow referred to as Mero, main ingredient: rapeseed oil methyl ester).

     The combinations mentioned above preferably comprise one or more sulfosuccinates d), in particular sodium di(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate. 
     All of the above combinations may also comprise one or more safeners (c), in particular those selected from the group consisting of (S1-1), (S1-6), (S1-9), (S2-1), (S3-1), (S-4), and/or one or more agrochemically active compounds (e), in particular those selected from the groups consisting of (e1.1)-(e1.66), (e2.1)-(e2.50), (e3.1)-(e3.16), (e4.1)-(e4.7). 
     The above combinations may furthermore also comprise one or more inorganic salts f), and also customary auxiliaries and additives g). 
     If the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention comprise, as component a), a plurality of pyridylsulfonylureas, for example mixtures of pyridylsulfonylureas of the formula (I) and/or their salts, at least one of the pyridylsulfonylureas is present in suspended form, but it is also possible for all pyridylsulfonylureas to be present in suspended form. 
     The oil suspension concentrates according to the invention can be prepared by known processes, for example by mixing the components. Thus, it is possible, for example, to prepare a premix by dissolving the optional sulfosuccinate d) in the organic solvent b) and, if appropriate, adding further auxiliaries and additives g) to this solution. Any soluble agrochemically active compounds c) and e) used are then dissolved in the premix. Once the dissolution process has ended, solid pyridylsulfonylurea a) and, if appropriate, any insoluble active compounds c) and e) used and also inorganic salts f) are suspended in the mixture. The coarse suspension is, if appropriate after pregrinding, subjected to fine grinding. 
     In another embodiment, solid pyridylsulfonylurea a) and, if appropriate, any insoluble components c), e), f) and g) used are suspended in the organic solvent b) which optionally contains a sulfosuccinate d) and subjected to grinding. Any soluble active compounds c) and e) used and any auxiliaries and additives from g) which do not require grinding or are not required for the grinding process are added after grinding. 
     To prepare the mixtures, it is possible to use customary mixing apparatus which, if required, are thermostatted. For pregrinding, it is possible to use, for example, high-pressure homogenizers or mills operating by the rotor-stator principle, such as Ultraturrax homogenizers, for example those from IKA, or toothed colloid mills, for example from Puck. For fine grinding, it is possible to use, for example, bead mills which operate batchwise, for example from Drais, or bead mills which operate continuously, for example from Bachofen. The preparation process can be adapted to the properties of the components optionally pretreated and to technical and safety requirements and to economical considerations, and pregrinding and even fine grinding of the suspension may be dispensed with, if required. 
     The components a) to f) used for the preparation may comprise water as a minor component which is then also found in the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention. Accordingly, the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention may comprise small amounts of water, in general from 0 to 5% by weight. Preferably, the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention are not subjected to any drying. 
     For use, the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention may, if appropriate, be diluted in a customary manner (for example using water), to give, for example, suspensions, emulsions, suspoemulsions or solutions, preferably to give emulsions. It may be advantageous to add further agrochemically active compounds (for example tank mix partners in the form of corresponding formulations) and/or auxiliaries and additives customary for application, for example self-emulsifying oils, such as vegetable oils or paraffin oils, and/or fertilizers to obtained spray emulsions. Accordingly, the present invention also provides such herbicidal compositions based on the oil suspension concentrates according to the invention. 
     The oil suspension concentrates according to the invention and the use forms obtainable therefrom by dilution (all of which are referred to as “herbicidal compositions according to the invention”) have outstanding herbicidal activity against a broad spectrum of economically important monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous harmful plants, including species which are resistant to herbicidally active compounds such as glyphosate, glufosinate, atrazine or imidazolinone herbicides. The active compounds also act efficiently on perennial weeds which produce shoots from rhizomes, rootstocks or other perennial organs and which are difficult to control. The substances can be applied, for example, by the pre-sowing, the pre-emergence or the post-emergence method. Preferred is, for example, the application to the emerged harmful plants (for example weeds or unwanted crop plants), in particular prior to the emergence of the (wanted) crop plants. 
     Specific examples which may be mentioned are some representatives of the monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weed flora which can be controlled by the compounds according to the invention, without the enumeration being a restriction to certain species. 
     The compositions act efficiently against, from amongst the monocotyledonous weed species, for example  Avena  spp.,  Alopecurus  spp.,  Brachiaria  spp.,  Digitaria  spp.,  Lolium  spp.,  Echinochloa  spp.,  Panicum  spp.,  Phalaris  spp.,  Poa  spp.,  Setaria  spp. and also  Cyperus  species from the annual group and, from amongst the perennial species,  Agropyron, Cynodon, Imperata  and  Sorghum  and also perennial  Cyperus  species. 
     In the case of dicotyledonous weed species, the spectrum of action extends to species such as, for example,  Abutilon  spp.,  Amaranthus  spp.,  Chenopodium  spp.,  Chrysanthemum  spp.,  Galium  spp.,  Ipomoea  spp.,  Kochia  spp.,  Lamium  spp.,  Matricaria  spp.,  Pharbitis  spp.,  Polygonum  spp.,  Sida  spp.,  Sinapis  spp.,  Solanum  spp.,  Stellaria  spp.,  Veronica  spp. and  Viola  spp.,  Xanthium  spp., amongst the annuals, and  Convolvulus, Cirsium, Rumex  and  Artemisia  in the case of the perennial weeds. 
     If the herbicidal compositions according to the invention are applied to the soil surface before germination, then the weed seedlings are either prevented completely from emerging, or the weeds grow until they have reached the cotyledon stage but then their growth stops, and, eventually, after three to four weeks have elapsed, they die completely. 
     If the herbicidal compositions are applied post-emergence to the green parts of the plants, growth likewise stops drastically a very short time after the treatment and the weed plants remain at the growth stage at the point of time of application, or they die completely after a certain time, so that in this manner competition by the weeds, which is harmful to the crop plants, is eliminated at a very early point in time and in a sustained manner. 
     The herbicidal compositions according to the invention are distinguished by a rapidly commencing and long-lasting herbicidal action. As a rule, the rainfastness of the active compounds in the combinations according to the invention is advantageous. A particular advantage is that the dosages of the compounds (a), which are used in the combinations and are effective, can be adjusted to such a low quantity that their soil action is optimally low. Not only does this allow them to be employed in sensitive crops in the first place, but groundwater contaminations are also virtually avoided. The active compound combination according to the invention allows the application rate of the active compounds required to be reduced considerably. 
     The abovementioned properties and advantages are of benefit for weed control practice to keep agricultural crops free from undesired competing plants and thus to safeguard and/or increase the yields from the qualitative and quantitative points of view. These novel combinations markedly exceed the technical state of the art with a view to the properties described. 
     In addition, some of the compositions according to the invention have outstanding growth-regulatory properties in crop plants. They engage in the plant&#39;s metabolism in a regulatory manner and can thus be employed for provoking direct effects on plant constituents and to facilitate harvesting such as, for example, by triggering desiccation and stunted growth. Moreover, they are also suitable for the general control and inhibition of undesired vegetative growth without destroying the plants at the same time. Inhibition of vegetative growth is very important in a large number of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crops since yield losses caused by lodging can thus be reduced, or prevented completely. 
     By virtue of their herbicidal and plant-growth-regulatory properties, the compositions can be employed for controlling harmful plants in known crop plants or still to be developed tolerant or genetically modified crop plants. The transgenic plants are distinguished as a rule by particular, advantageous properties, such as, in addition to resistances to the compositions according to the invention, for example resistances to plant diseases or causative agents of plant diseases such as particular insects or microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria or viruses. Other particular properties relate, for example, to the harvested material with regard to quantity, quality, storability, composition and specific constituents. Thus, for example, transgenic plants are known whose starch content is increased or whose starch quality is altered, or those where the harvested material has a different fatty acid composition. 
     Conventional methods of generating novel plants which have modified properties in comparison to plants occurring to date consist, for example, in traditional breeding methods and the generation of mutants. Alternatively, novel plants with altered properties can be generated with the aid of recombinant methods (see, for example, EP-A-0221044, EP-A-0131624). For example, the following have been described in several cases:
         the modification, by recombinant technology, of crop plants with the aim of modifying the starch synthesized in the plants (for example WO 92/11376, WO 92/14827, WO 91/19806),   transgenic crop plants which exhibit resistances to other herbicides, for example to sulfonylureas (EP-A-0257993, U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,659),   transgenic crop plants with the capability of producing  Bacillus thuringiensis  toxins (Bt toxins), which make the plants resistant to certain pests (EP-A-0142924, EP-A-0193259),   transgenic crop plants with a modified fatty acid composition (WO 91/13972).       

     A large number of techniques in molecular biology are known in principle with the aid of which novel transgenic plants with modified properties can be generated; see, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2 nd  Edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.; or Winnacker “Gene und Klone”, VCH Weinheim 2 nd  Edition 1996 or Christou, “Trends in Plant Science” 1 (1996) 423-431. 
     To carry out such recombinant manipulations, nucleic acid molecules which allow mutagenesis or sequence changes by recombination of DNA sequences can be introduced into plasmids. For example, the abovementioned standard methods allow base exchanges to be carried out, subsequences to be removed, or natural or synthetic sequences to be added. To connect the DNA fragments to each other, adapters or linkers may be added to the fragments. 
     For example, the generation of plant cells with a reduced activity of a gene product can be achieved by expressing at least one corresponding antisense RNA, a sense RNA for achieving a cosuppression effect or by expressing at least one suitably constructed ribozyme which specifically cleaves transcripts of the above-mentioned gene product. 
     To this end, it is possible to use DNA molecules which encompass the entire coding sequence of a gene product inclusive of any flanking sequences which may be present, and also DNA molecules which only encompass portions of the coding sequence, it being necessary for these portions to be long enough to have an antisense effect in the cells. The use of DNA sequences which have a high degree of homology to the coding sequences of a gene product, but are not completely identical to them, is also possible. 
     When expressing nucleic acid molecules in plants, the protein synthesized can be localized in any desired compartment of the plant cell. However, to achieve localization in a particular compartment, it is possible, for example, to link the coding region with DNA sequences which ensure localization in a particular compartment. Such sequences are known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, Braun et al., EMBO J. 11 (1992), 3219-3227; Wolter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85 (1988), 846-850; Sonnewald et al., Plant J. 1 (1991), 95-106). 
     The transgenic plant cells can be regenerated by known techniques to give rise to entire plants. In principle, the transgenic plants can be plants of any desired plant species, i.e. not only monocotyledonous, but also dicotyledonous, plants. Thus, transgenic plants can be obtained whose properties are altered by overexpression, suppression or inhibition of homologous (=natural) genes or gene sequences or the expression of heterologous (=foreign) genes or gene sequences. 
     Thus, the present invention furthermore provides a method for controlling unwanted plants, preferably in crop plants, which comprises applying the herbicidal compositions according to the invention to the plants (for example harmful plants, such as monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), the seed or the area on which the plants grow (for example the area under cultivation). 
     Unwanted plants are to be understood as meaning all plants which grow in locations where they are unwanted. This can, for example, be harmful plants (for example monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), including, for example, those which are resistant to certain herbicidally active compounds, such as glyphosate, atrazine, glufosinate or imidazolinone herbicides. 
     In the method according to the invention, an effective amount of the herbicidal compositions according to the invention is preferably employed for controlling harmful plants, preferably in crop plants, for example in economically important farm crops, for example monocotyledonous farm crops, for example cereals (for example wheat, barley, rye, oats), rice, corn, millet, or dicotyledonous farm crops, such as sugar beet, oilseed rape, cotton, sunflowers and leguminous plants, for example of the genera  Glycine  (for example  Glycine max . such as nontransgenic  Glycine max . (for example conventional cultivars, such as STS cultivars) or transgenic  Glycine max . (for example RR-soybean or LL-soybean) and crossbreeds thereof),  Phaseolus, Pisum, Vicia  and  Arachis , or vegetable crops from various botanical groups, such as potato, leek, cabbage, carrot, tomato, onion, and also permanent crops and plantation crops, such as pome fruit and stone fruit, berry fruit, grapevine. Hevea, bananas, sugar cane, coffee, tea, citrus fruits, nut plantations, lawn, palm plantations and forest plantations. 
     The herbicidal compositions according to the invention have excellent selectivity in crops of leguminous plants. They are suitable, for example, for the selective control of unwanted vegetation, for example of harmful plants (for example monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), in crops of transgenic and nontransgenic leguminous plants, in particular of the genus  Glycine , for example by the pre-sowing method, the pre-emergence method or the post-emergence method. 
     Suitable leguminous plants are, for example, transgenic and nontransgenic leguminous plants, for example of the genera  Glycine, Phaseolus, Pisum, Vicia  and  Arachis . Preferred are leguminous plants of the genus  Glycine , for example of the species  Glycine max . (soybean), such as nontransgenic  Glycine max . (for example conventional cultivars, such as STS cultivars) or transgenic  Glycine max . (for example RR-soybeans or LL-soybeans) and crossbreeds thereof. 
     The herbicidal compositions according to the invention can also be employed non-selectively for controlling unwanted vegetation, for example in permanent crops and plantation crops, on roadsides, squares, industrial plants, airports or railway tracks, or for the burn-down application, for example in farm crops, for example monocotyledonous farm crops, such as cereals (for example wheat, barley, rye, oats), rice, corn, millet, or dicotyledonous farm crops, such as sugar beet, oilseed rape, cotton, sunflowers and leguminous plants, for example of the genera  Glycine  (for example  Glycine max . (soybean), such as nontransgenic  Glycine max . (for example conventional cultivars, such as STS cultivars) or transgenic  Glycine max.  (for example RR-soybean or LL-soybean) and crossbreeds thereof),  Phaseolus, Pisum, Vicia  and  Arachis , or vegetable crops from various botanical groups, such as potato, leek, cabbage, carrot, tomato, onion. The application is preferably carried out to the emerged harmful plants (for example weeds or unwanted crop plants), in particular prior to the emergence of (wanted) crop plants. 
     Permanent crops and plantation crops are, for example, pome fruit and stone fruit, berry fruit, grapevines, Hevea, bananas, sugar cane, coffee, tea, citrus fruit, nut plantations, roses, palm plantations and forest plantations. 
     Preferred for the nonselective application is the burn-down application in crop plants, where the herbicidal compositions according to the invention are applied to the emerged harmful plants prior to the emergence of the crop plants; preference is given here to application prior to sowing of the crop plants or during sowing of the crop plants. 
     The invention also provides the use of the herbicidal compositions according to the invention for controlling unwanted vegetation, preferably in crop plants. 
     To control unwanted plant growth (for example for the nonselective control of harmful plants or for the selective control of harmful plants in leguminous plants), the herbicidal compositions according to the invention can be applied to the plants (for example (wanted) crop plants or harmful plants, such as monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), the seed (for example grains, seeds or vegetative propagation organs, such as tubers or shoot parts with buds) or to the area on which the plants grow (for example the area under cultivation), in particular in a herbicidally effective amount. They can be applied, for example, prior to sowing, and also both before and after emergence of the plants. Pre-sowing application can be carried out, for example, by spraying or incorporation into the soil. Split applications, for example early pre-emergence followed by later post-emergence application, are also possible. Preference is given to application to the emerged harmful plants (for example monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), in particular prior to the emergence of (wanted) crop plants, such as leguminous plants. 
     For the selective use in leguminous plants, application to emerged plants, in particular to emerged harmful plants (for example weeds or unwanted crop plants) is preferred, preferably prior to the emergence of the leguminous plants. Preferred for the nonselective use is the application to the emerged harmful plants (for example weeds or unwanted crop plants). In the burn-down application, application is preferably carried out prior to sowing or during sowing of the crop plants, to the emerged harmful plants. 
     The amount of active compound applied may vary within a relatively wide range. It depends essentially on the nature of the desired effect. In general, the application rates are between 0.01 g and 100 g of active compound per hectare of soil surface. For selective use, preference is generally given to lower application rates, for example in the range from 0.01 g to 9 g of active compound per hectare, preferably between 0.1 g and 5 g per hectare, in particular in the application to emerged plants, in particular to emerged harmful plants (for example weeds or unwanted crop plants). Preferred for the nonselective use are generally application rates in the range from 0.01 g to 49 g of active compound per hectare, in particular from 0.01 g to 9 g of active compound per hectare, preferably between 0.1 g and 5 g per hectare. 
     The oil suspension concentrate of the present invention has excellent chemical stability during preparation and storage and is suitable in particular also for combinations of active compounds having different physical chemical properties, for example of a herbicidal pyridylsulfonylurea which is poorly soluble in organic solvents with further soluble agrochemically active compounds. Moreover, the oil suspension concentrate has excellent physical stability, is easy to apply and easy to use and has high biological effectiveness and crop plant compatibility (selectivity). 
     The oil suspension concentrates described in the examples below were prepared as follows: a premix was prepared in which all the soluble components from d), f) and g) and also, if appropriate, the thickener were homogeneously distributed in the solvent or solvent mixture b). Soluble active compounds c) and e) were then dissolved in the premix. Following conclusion of the dissolution process, solid pyridylsulfonylurea a) and further insoluble components from c) to g) were suspended in the mixture. The coarse suspension was, after pregrinding, subjected to fine grinding.
