A solid herbicidal composition containing a high content of topramezone salt and having excellent disintegration and dispersion performance is provided. The composition is in the form of a water dispersible granule. The topramezone salt can be selected from the group consisting of sodium salt of topramezone, potassium salt of topramezone, lithium salt of topramezone and ammonium salt of topramezone. The solid herbicidal composition further includes dispersant which can be selected from the group consisting of aryl sulfonate salt/ester, alkaryl sulfonate salt/ester, sulfonate salt/ester of their formaldehyde condensates, polycarboxylate, and lignosulfonate.

Disclosed are methods for selectively controlling or modifying the growth of Poa annus in a turfgrass using a composition comprising an herbicidally-effective amount tebuconazole, or a salt thereof.

The present invention relates to a combination for the selective control of weeds. More particularly, the present invention relates to a combination of one or more triazolone herbicides with one or more safeners for the selective control of weeds.

Disclosed are compounds having a monoterpenoid and/or phenylpropanoid moiety and methods of their making and use as pesticidal compounds, such as seed treatments.
