High drift risk in very calm weather
An
early morning without wind is ideal for spraying herbicides, is the
feeling of many farmers. But experts take a different view. If the air
at boom-height is colder than a few meters above ground level, the risk
of spray drift is even higher. All current pesticide formulations are at
risk of drift during such temperature inversions. Volatilisation from
leaf and soil surfaces makes low-volatile dicamba formulations risky
from some days prior to an inversion. Adjuvants & Formulations highlights drift risk at temperature inversions in the just published September-October issue. | |

Patents in brief
Formulators
explore the possibilities of three dimensional (3D) extrusion printing
to prepare carriers with sophisticated release profiles. Adjuvants &
Formulations also reports about new surfactant systems. In this section
also news about improved urease and nitrification inhibitor
formulations, new formulations for pethoxamid and for a mixture of
afidopyropen plus cypermethrin. Companies have also filed patent
applications on a stable emamectin plus cartap composition, concentrated
mixtures of glyphosate potassium and isopropylamine, and a concentrated
liquid 2,4-D formulation that is crystallisation-tolerant at low
temperatures. | |
