The present invention relates to specific herbicide combinations comprising (i) L-glufosinate and/or salts thereof and (ii) trifludimoxazin in specific ratios, and to compositions comprising said herbicide combinations in these ratios. The present invention further relates to a method of producing said specific herbicide combinations and compositions comprising said specific herbicide combinations. The present invention also relates to the use of said specific herbicide combinations and compositions comprising said specific herbicide combinations in the field of agriculture, for controlling harmful plants or undesired plant growth, as well as to corresponding methods.

The present invention is directed to a process for the preparation of liquid or sludge slow-release compositions suitable for agricultural use, comprising one or more active ingredients selected from the group consisting of fertilizers, pesticides, lipophilic and/or hydrophilic compounds, and mixtures of non-pathogenic bacteria together with lipophilic and/or hydrophilic compounds, wherein these actives become encapsulated in an alginate matrix. The direction also encompasses compositions prepared by this process and methods for using said compositions for the delivery and slow release of agrochemicals and other actives in close proximity to the roots of plants.
