(zeta-cypermethrin), (zeta-cypermethrin+bifenthrin).

(10) b. Forms of presentation: the blend (B) of folcysteine-based biostimulant (X) and at least one agrotoxic of interest (Y) defined by the formula B=(X)+(Y), may be presented as a solid or liquid, with concentrations of each component X and Y varying between 0.1% and 99%.

(11) b.1 Solid blend: in the form of soluble powders, granules, pellets, emulsionable concentrate, impregnated with the active ingredients.

(12) This form of presentation includes the possible use of dyes (Z1) or added adherent coatings (Z2), which help the active ingredients (X) and (Y) adhere to the plant. The solid blend may be represented by the formula:
Bs=((X+Y+Z1+Z2)+Z3)

(13) Where:

(14) Bs=blend obtained from a folcysteine-based biostimulant and at least one agrotoxic of interest;

(15) X=folcysteine-based biostimulant, whose concentration in the blend may be defined in the rage between 0.50 and 2,000 g ai/ha;

(16) Y=Agrotoxic of interest;

(17) Z1=dyes such as, but not limited to iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussia blue, and organic dyes such as alizarin dyes, azo dyes and metal phthalocyanine dyes;

(18) Z2=screening nutrients such as iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc salts;

(19) Z3=adherent coatings such as, but not limited to carboxymethylcellulose, natural and synthetic polymers in different forms such as powders or granules, latex, gum Arabic, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids.

(20) The solid blend (Bs) shall preferably be applied using spraying or spreading techniques.

(21) b.2 Liquid blend: in the form of liquid ingredients, solutions, suspensions and/or emulsions, may be prepared from the active ingredients (X) and (Y) alone an then blended in the tank and diluted for use, thus obtaining a liquid solution or emulsion. Alternatively, components (X) and (Y) may be pre-blended, needing only to be diluted in the tank to obtain the blend. In both situations the blend shall preferably be applied using spraying and/or atomization techniques.

(22) In general, when preparing the liquid blend, a preliminary blend or suspension is prepared with at least one stabilizing agent (W1) and a solvent or diluent (W2). After this, the appropriate amount of adjuvant agents (W3) is added. A pigment or dye (W4) and screening nutrients (W5) may also be added to this preliminary blend. Finally, Folcysteine (X) and the agrotoxic of interest (Y) are added to prepare the final blend until a state of diluted and homogeneous blend is achieved, ready to be applied to an agricultural crop by, for example, spraying.

(23) Thus, a liquid blend presentation may be represented by the following formula:
Bl=(((W1)+(W2)+(W3)+(W4)+(W5)+((X)+(Y)))

(24) Where:

(25) Bl=blend obtained from a folcysteine-based biostimulant and at least one agrotoxic of interest:

(26) X=Folcysteine in a concentration ranging from 0.50 to 2,000 g ai/ha;

(27) Y=Agrotoxic of interest;

(28) W1=stabilizing agent;

(29) W2=Diluents such as a water-immiscible non-polar solvent (W21), an aprotic solvent (W22), a polar organic solvent blended with aprotic water;

(30) W21=non-polar solvents include, for example, substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons and alkyl esters, including but not limited to canola (B. napus), linseed, saffron (Carthamus tinctorius L.), soy and sunflower oil methyl, ethyl and butyl esters. A non-limiting example of methyl ester is Agent 2416-21 manufactured by Stepan Company (22 W. Frontage Road, Northfield, Illinois).

(31) W21=polar, aprotic water-miscible solvents include, for example, alkyl lactates, isopropyl lactate, alkyl carbonates, polyethylene glycols, polyethylene glycol alkyl esters, polypropylene glycols and polypropylene alkyl esters or mixtures thereof.

(32) W3=adjuvants include, for example, surfactants (emulsifiers), crop oils, fertilizers, dispersants, compatibility agents, foaming agents, anti-foams, correctives and spraying dyes (dyes); Adjuvants may be present in any desired amount.

(33) For example, a formulation may contain from 1% to 3% of adjuvant, 3% to 8% adjuvant, 8% to 16% adjuvant, 17% to 30% adjuvant or 30% (e.g. 40% or more) or more adjuvant;

(34) W4=dyes such as, but not limited to iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussia blue, and organic dyes such as alizarin dyes, azo dyes and metal phthalocyanine dyes;

(35) W5=screening nutrients such as iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc salts;

(36) c. Technical effect obtained: the following detailed description shows some of the forms to apply a “blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest”. Such examples are intended to limit the scope of the invention, which is limited by its claims.

(37) c.1 Example 1: Test performed by UDI Pesquisa in Uberlândia, MG with 4 repetitions and 4 treatments. In the first (treatment 1), the plant was treated only with Herbicide AI1 as a comparison reference. The other treatments (2, 3 and 4) used a blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and AI1, an agrotoxic of interest (ammonium glufosinate-based), a volume of 300 l/ha was prayed on stage V4 corn plants. See the results in the following chart:

(38) TABLE-US-00005 CHART 5 folcysteine-based biostimulant + Herbicide (AI1) Dose Weight of 1,000 grains Productivity Treatments (kg-l/ha) (g) Index (kg/ha) Index 1. Y 1.50 25.89 a 100 7.142 b 100 2. B1 0.50 27.95 a 108 8.358 a 117 3. B1 1.00 27.75 a 107 8.375 a 117 4. B1 2.00 30.26 a 117 8.498 a 119 Key: Y = ammonium glufosinate herbicide B1 = blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest-an ammonium glufosinate-based herbicide.

(39) The results of the application of the blend of the folcysteine-based biostimulant and the herbicide (ammonium glufosinate) showed that the blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and a herbicide agrotoxic of interest (ammonium glufosinate) consistently increased the weight of harvested corn grains and the yield measured in volume of grain per hectare (treatment 2). This performance was repeated in subsequent treatments (see treatments 3 and 4).

(40) c.2 Example 2: Test performed by T. Cobbucci in São João da Aliança, GO, with 4 repetitions and 4 treatments. Treatment 1 is a sample of the plant with no treatment at all (Witness), and the other treatments (2, 3 and 4) used a blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and a herbicide AI2 agrotoxic of interest (fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl), sprayed in a volume of 200 l/ha of the blend applied to stage V2 bean plants. The results can be seen in the following chart:

(41) TABLE-US-00006 CHART 6 folcysteine-based biostimulant + Herbicide (AI2) Dose Productivity Treatment Stage (kg-l/ha) (kg/ha) Index 1. Witness — — 3.582 100 2. B2 V4 0.50 3.804 106 3. B2 V4 1.00 4.206 117 4. B2 V4 2.00 4.326 121 Key: Witness = plant with no treatment. B2 = Blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, a fomesafen + fluazifop-p-ethyl based herbicide.

(42) The results showed that the blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and a herbicide agrotoxic of interest AI2 (fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl) in stage V4 contributed to progressive increases in yield of 6%, 17% and 21% compared to the untreated (witness) plant.

(43) c.3 Example 3: Complement to the test performed by T. Cobbucci in São João da Aliança, GO, the results of which are submitted in example 2, where 4 repetitions and 7 treatments were performed. The first one (treatment 1) is a plant with no treatment at all (Witness). The three subsequent treatments (2, 3 and 4) used a blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, herbicide AI2 (fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl based), sprayed in a volume of 200 l/ha of the blend on stage V4 corn plants.

(44) Lastly, the final treatments (5, 6 and 7) used a blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, fungicide AI3 (based on pyraclostrobin) sprayed in a volume of 200 l/ha on stage R5 bean plants. The results are available in the following chart:

B2 = Blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, a fomesafen + fluazifop-p-ethyl based herbicide. B3 = blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, pyraclostrobin.

(46) The results showed that, in stage R5, already taking into consideration the improved performance from applying herbicide (AI2), it was found that applying a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest (AI3), a pyraclostrobin-based fungicide, contributed to a significant, 20% to 24% increase in yield compared to the yield of the untreated (Witness) plant.

(47) c.4 Example 4: Complementing the test performed by T. Cobbucci in São João da Aliança, GO in example 3, 4 repetitions of 10 treatments were performed. The first one (treatment 1) was no treatment at all (Witness), and the three following treatments (treatments 2, 3 and 4) used a blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, herbicide AI2 (based on fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl), sprayed in a volume of 200 l/ha to stage V4 bean plants. The three subsequent treatments (5, and 7) used agrotoxic of interest herbicide AI3 (based on pyraclostrobin) sprayed in a volume of 200 l/ha to stage R5 bean plants. The three final treatments (8, 9 and 10) used a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, herbicide AI2 (based on fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl) to stage V4 plants, followed by a second application of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, herbicide AI3 (pyraclostrobin based). See the results in the following chart:

B3 = blend of a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, a pyraclostrobin based fungicide

(49) Results showed that, when a folcysteine-based biostimulant is applied with a fomesafen+fluazifop-p-ethyl based herbicide (Herbicide AI2), specifically in stage V4, followed by a second application of the blend, this time together with a pyraclostrobin-based fungicide (Fungicide AI3), this three-application treatment increased yields by 20% to 50%.

(50) c.5 Example 5: Laboratory test performed by Unesp in Jaboticabal, SP to measure mite control, specifically control of Tetranychus urticae with 4 repetitions and 4 treatments. The first (treatment 1) is a sample of the plant with no treatment (Witness). The second is a sample treated with Folcysteine alone (treatment 2), the third a plant sample treated only with the agrotoxic of interest, miticide AI4 (based on propargite), identified as treatment 3, and the fourth treatment used a folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, miticide AI4 (propargite-based), identified as treatment 4, applied under laboratory conditions. See the results in the following chart:

The first (treatment 1) is a sample of the plant with no treatment (Witness). The second is a sample treated with Folcysteine alone (treatment 2), the third a plant sample treated only with the agrotoxic of interest, miticide AI5, and the fourth treatment using a blend of folcysteine-based biostimulant and an agrotoxic of interest, miticide AI5 (abamectin-based), identified as treatment 4, applied under laboratory conditions. The results are available in the following chart:
