Abstract:
... Novel pesticide loaded formulations were developed through amphiphile self-assembly strategy, allowing of concentrating the herbicide Lontrel in salad leaves. The structure-activity correlations were analyzed in terms of Lontrel amount taken up by plants and wetting ability of formulations. Key factors responsible for the efficacy of herbicide compositions are the structure and concentration of su ...

Abstract:
... Weed control between plastic covered, raised beds in Florida vegetable crops relies predominantly on herbicides. Broadcast applications of post-emergence herbicides are unnecessary due to the general patchy distribution of weed populations. Development of precision herbicide sprayers to apply herbicides where weeds occur would result in input reductions. The objective of the study was to test a st ...
