Chemical Protection of Crop Plants from Postemergence Herbicide Injury by Decreasing Foliar Retension and Ultimately Absorption by the Crop Plant

Detailed Technology Description: Description of Technology Michigan State University’s invention is a composition for protecting cultivated plants and is comprised of an herbicide and a repellant adjuvant that reduces retention of the composition on the foliage of the cultivated plant. Key BenefitsProtects cultivated plants from herbicidal damageEspecially useful when a plant is at a vulnerable stage of growthpotential to reduce volume of herbicides utilized in a spray operation due to decrease in foliar retention Applications This technology would be useful as a herbicide for cultivated crops, such as turfgrass, food plants, ornamental plants, and garden plants.
