(116) 4.2) Investigation Timing and Frequency

(117) The investigation was performed after 20 days of the treatment for only once.

(118) 4.3) Statistical Analysis of the Data

(119) Theoretical fresh weight inhibition rate of a combination of two active ingredients in each group was calculated by the Gowing method (E0=X+YX*Y/100), and then compared with an actually measured inhibition rate (E), thereby effect of the combination (hereafter referred to as combined effect) on weeds was evaluated: the value of EE0, which was greater than 10%, corresponded to a synergistic effect, the value of EE0, which was less than 10%, corresponded to an antagonistic effect, and the value of EE0, which was from 10% to 10%, corresponded to an additional effect. An optimum ratio of the two active ingredients was determined by the actual control effect, characteristics of herbicides, and balance of a corresponding formula.

(120) Wherein, in the formula, X represented the fresh weight inhibition rate of A in a dosage of P, and Y represented the fresh weight inhibition rate of the active ingredient B in a dosage of Q.

(135) C. Pilot Sites

(136) Tests using the herbicidal compositions prepared in Examples 1) to 21) to control weeds in cornfields.

(137) In 2014, a demonstration popularization test was conducted at 25 pilot sites in 5 corn areas in Dezhou in Shandong Province, SuiHua in Heilongjiang Province, Gongzhuling in Jilin Province, Shenyang in Liaoning Province and Baoding in Hebei Province. Corn varieties in different demonstration areas were shown in Table 14.

(139) Experimental methods: In the stage of 3 leaves and 1 core of the corn and 3-5 leaves of the weed, the agent was evenly sprayed on stems and leaves through a manual sprayer, wherein the amount of added water was 15 kg/667 m.sup.2, the specific tested agents and dosage thereof were shown in Table 15. The area of the pilot site was 50 square meters, and each treatment was repeated for 4 times. The weed control efficiency after 45 days of application was shown in Table 15, and the safety of corn was shown in Table 16.

(140) Weed control efficiency ( % ) = number of weed strains in the water control area - number of weed strains in the area treated with agents number of weed strains in the water control area

(143) Note: types of the weed community in each of the demonstration areas were as follows: Dezhou: Echinochloa crusgalli+Setaria virdis+Digitaria sanguinalis+Chenopodium album+Amaranthus retroflexus; Suihua: Echinochloa crusgalli+Setaria virdis+Abutilon avicennae+Xanthium sibiricum+Chenopodium album+Amaranthus retroflexus; Gongzhuling: Echinochloa crusgalli+Setaria virdis+Abutilon avicennae+Xanthium sibiricum+Commelina communica; Shenyang: Echinochloa crusgalli+Setaria virdis+Eriochloa+Panicum miliaceum; and Baoding: Echinochloa crusgalli+Setaria virdis+Digitaria sanguinalis+Amaranthus retroflexus+Chenopodium album.

(144) After making extensive experimentations and explorations, the present inventors have unexpectedly discovered that when a mixture of a compound A, an active ingredient B and a safener compound C is used for the control of Gramineae weeds for postemergence application in cornfields, surprising and unexpected synergistic effects are achieved, especially the mixture exhibits significantly synergistic effects on the control of Gramineae weeds such as Echinochloa crusgalli and Setaria viridis, broad-leaf weeds such as Chenopodium album, Abutilon avicennae, and Convolvulus arvernsis, and Gyperaceae weeds such as Rhizoma Cyperi etc., thereby reducing application dose, being safe for corns and reducing environmental pollution, and the rational compounding leads to reduced agricultural costs and highly effective control of weeds resistant to ALS inhibitors. The inventive compositions have a good application prospect.
