Some embodiments relate to herbicide compositions and methods of inducing phyotoxicity in a plant, by administering an aqueous composition to foliar portions of the plant. This aqueous composition includes at least one nutrient, and at least one adjuvant, and has a pH of about 4 to about 7. In some embodiments, the aqueous composition comprises an organic or mineral acid. In some embodiments, the phytotoxicity is topical. In some embodiments, the phytoxicity is systemic. Without being limited by theory, the nutrient is absorbed by the plant in excess, thereby killing the plant.

Method for simultaneously preventing pink bollworm and American bollworm, the method including at least: a step in which cotton seedlings are planted in a field 21-41 days after the date of occurrence of the adult stage of the pink bollworm in the case of the first generation, and 1-29 days after the date of occurrence of the adult stage in the case of second and subsequent generations; and a step in which an extended-release pheromone preparation including at least Z,Z/Z,E-7,11-hexadecadienyl acetate, which is a sexual pheromone substance for pink bollworm, and Z-11-hexadecenal, which is a sexual pheromone substance for American bollworm, is implanted in the field 2-15 days before the expected date of occurrence of the adult stage of the next generation of pink bollworm, the expected date derived from the effective integrated temperature, and the sexual pheromone substances in the extended-release pheromone preparation are released in the field.
