Herbicidal compositions for reducing off-site movement or drift of herbicides are described. The herbicidal compositions can include an auxin herbicide, an oil or an ester of the oil, and a polymeric emulsifying agent, such as glycerol ethoxylate-polyricinoleate, glycerol ethoxylate-poly-(12-hydroxystearate), polyethylene glycol (PEG)-polyricinoleate, PEG-poly-(12-hydroxystearate), and a combination thereof. Methods of making such compositions and methods of making such polymeric emulsifying agents are also described.

The preparation, composition, and method of use of an antibacterial formulation utilizing tannins, acceptable for agriculture and for use against bacterial and fungicidal diseases in plants. The composition is based on an organic matrix and may be balanced with dispersants, flocculants and humectants, and may be used against a wide range of agricultural bacterial diseases.

Storage-stable compositions for generating antimicrobial activity are described. The compositions comprise an enzyme that is able to convert a substrate to release hydrogen peroxide, and an unrefined natural substance, such as a honey, that includes a substrate for the enzyme. In certain embodiments, the enzyme is a purified enzyme. In other embodiments, the substrate lacks catalase activity, and the enzyme is additional to any enzyme activity able to convert the substrate to release hydrogen peroxide that may be present in the unrefined natural substance. The storage-stable compositions do not include sufficient free water to allow the enzyme to convert the substrate. Use of the compositions to treat microbial infections and wounds is described, as well as methods for their production.

A systemic, broad-spectrum herbicide comprises a water-soluble extract of one or more plant parts of rhubarb and yew. The herbicide can also contain other plant material, including plant parts of Bryonia and Laburnum. The herbicide, which is based on natural products can translocate to the roots of a plant, when the herbicide is applied to an aerial part of the plant. The herbicide can eradicate grasses, mosses and weeds, including bindweed, nettles and dockweed.
