Abstract

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to herbicidal compositions comprising an aminophosphate or aminophosphonate salt, particularly to herbicidal compositions comprising a relatively high amount of aminophosphate or aminophosphonate salt and a betaine-based surfactant composition of matter.
[0002] Among various presentations of compositions comprising glyphosate, concentrated liquid compositions that can be diluted by the end-user (typically a farmer) are of interest. Usually, the higher the glyphosate concentration is, the better it is, because the end-user can set the use concentration (the amount of active applied to the field) by adjusting the dilution rate, and can avoid handling much product (for example the higher the concentration is, the lower the weight is).
[0003] Concentrated compositions can comprise a high amount of glyphosate, water, and at least one surfactant compound that can be useful as a formulation aid (dispersion, dissolution and / or stabi...
