Abstract

AbstractThiocarbamate herbicides were encapsulated within starch xanthate (SX) matrices to provide granules for spray mix applications. The SX granules were compared with microencapsulated (EN) and emulsifiable concentrate (EC) forms of these herbicides in greenhouse and field to determine weed contol in soil having a prior history of thiocarbamate use. The SX encapsulated thiocarbamates controlled over 80% of the weeds in 30 days. Thiocarbamate release from SX was better suited than release from EN for overcoming enhanced degradation in the field. Phytotoxicity of SX formulations was related to loss of the safener R‐25788 (N, N‐ Diallyl‐2,2‐dichloroacetamide) during formulation.
