Disclosed is an agrochemical-containing pressure sensitive adhesive tape 10, including a substrate 11 and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer 12 provided on the substrate 11. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer 12 contains an emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive and a systemic agrochemical. Preferably, the emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive is an acrylic emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive or a rubber-based emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive containing latex rubber as a main component. The agrochemical is preferably at least one of an insecticide, a bactericide, an insecticidal and bactericidal agent, a herbicide and a plant growth regulator.

Methods of reducing injury to crop foliage and achieving weed control using encapsulated acetamide herbicides in pre-plant or preemergence crop plant applications are described. A composition comprising a first population of a particulate microencapsulated acetamide herbicide and a second population of a particulate microencapsulated acetamide herbicide is described wherein the application mixture exhibits a bimodal acetamide release profile. The compositions provide reduced crop injury through controlled herbicide release.
