ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to novel herbicidal active compound combinations comprising, on the one hand, known N-aryl-uracils and, on the other hand, known herbicidally active compounds and/or compounds which improve crop plant compatibility, which combinations can be used with particularly good results for controlling monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in various crops of useful plants, but also for controlling monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in the semi- and non-selective field.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
N-aryl-uracils are, as herbicidally active compounds, subject of a number of patent applications (cf. EP-A-408382, EP-A-473551, EP-A-563384, EP-A-648749, U.S. Pat. No. 4,943,309, U.S. Pat. No. 5,084,084, U.S. Pat. No. 5,127,935, U.S. Pat. No. 5,759,957, WO-A-91/00278, WO-A-95/29168, WO-A-95/30661, WO-A-96/35679, WO-A-97/01541, WO-A-98/25909). However, the known N-aryl-uracils have a number of gaps in their activity.
A number of herbicidally active compound combinations based on N-aryl-uracils have also been disclosed (cf. DE-A-4437197, DE-A-19915013, DE-A-19919951, EP-A-714602, WO-A-96/07323, WO-A-96/08151, JP-A-11189506). However, likewise, the properties of these active compound combinations are not entirely satisfactory.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Surprisingly, it has now been found that a number of known active compounds from the group of the N-aryl-uracils, when used together with known herbicidally active compounds, show synergistic effects with respect to the activity against weeds and can be used particularly advantageously as broadly active combination preparations for the selective control of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in crops of useful plants, such as, for example, cotton, cereals, grass/pasture land, maize, lawn (“turf”), rice, soyabeans, sunflowers and sugar cane, but also for controlling monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in the semi- and non-selective field.
The present invention provides herbicidal compositions, characterized in that they comprise an effective amount of an active compound combination comprising
