As a rule, inert ingredients must be used to provide crop protection active compounds, for example fungicidal compounds, in a form that the user can apply, either as such or after dilution with water. The right choice of suitable inert ingredients, such as carriers, for the formulation often determines to a significant extent whether the active ingredient exhibits its full efficacy on application. Not every active ingredient is suitable for use in any given formulation, because both the efficacy and physiochemical stability of the active ingredient may be affected by other ingredients in the formulation.

The efficacy of the active components can often be improved by addition of other ingredients. The observed efficacy of the combination of ingredients can sometimes be significantly higher than that would be expected from the amounts of the individual ingredients used (synergism). An adjuvant is defined here as a substance which can increase the biological activity of an active ingredient but is not itself significantly biologically active. The adjuvant can either be included in the formulation or can be added separately, e. g., to a spray tank together with the formulation containing the active ingredient.

For easy and safe handling and dosing of these adjuvants by the end-user, and to avoid unnecessary packing material, it is desirable to develop concentrated formulations which already contain such adjuvants.

The International Patent Application WO 95/01722 discloses aqueous pesticidal formulations containing non-ionic dispersants selected

from block-polymers having a polyoxypropylene core, an anionic dispersant, and a wetting agents selected from polyalkoxylated fatty alcools. However, it is not stated that these wetting agents enhance the activity of the pesticides.

Moreover, there is no disclosure of non-aqueous suspension concentrates.

In a particularly preferred embodiment according to this invention the non- aqueous SC essentially consists of (a) 75 to 250 g/L of one or more crop protection active compounds, in particular a compound of formula 1 ; (b) 200 to 650 g/L of one or more ingredients selected from the group consisting of C,-2. alcohols or amines being alkoxylated with 2 to 20 C26 alkoxy groups, in particular PLURAFACO LF 700 or ATPLUSO 245, and alkoxylated triglycerides, in particular UKANILO 2507 ; (c) 100 to 450 g/L of one or more organic solvents selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, alkyl lactates, glycols and plant oil esters ; (d) 0 to 50 g/L of a polyoxyethylene fatty acid ; (e) 20 to 100 g/L of an alkali or alkaline earth metal sulfonate, in particular Rhodocal0 70/B or PHENYLSULFONAT CA100 ; and (f) 10 to 100 g/L of one or more silicates or organo clays, in particular Attagelo 50.

The ingredients may be processed to form a suspension concentrate according to the invention by well-established techniques, including intensive mixing and/or milling of the active ingredients with the other substances, such as solvents, dispersants, and adjuvants. The desired form of application, such as

spraying, atomizing, dispersing or pouring, will depend on the desired objectives and the given circumstances, and can be readily determined by one skilled in the art.

Suspension concentrates according to the present invention are usually produced so as to obtain a stable, non-sedimenting, flowable product containing 5 to 40% w/v active ingredient, 0. 5 to 30% w/v of dispersing agents, 0. 1 to 10% w/v of suspending agents such as protective colloids and thixotropic agents, 0 to 10% w/v of other additives such as defoamers, corrosion inhibitors, stabilizers, penetrants and stickers, and an organic liquid in which the active ingredient is substantially insoluble.

In a preferred embodiment, the crop protection compound (a) is air-milled before admixing the components (b) to (f).

The finished non-aqueous suspension concentrates according to the invention are stable in storage, even over a relatively long period. Although phase separation may occur upon storage due to sedimentation of the active ingredient, no aggregates are formed. The SCs according to the present invention may include high loadings of one or more adjuvants in a one-pack formulation with a pesticide and, therefore, offer the advantage of an optimized and easy-to-use formulation of the crop protection active compound. The separate addition of an adjuvant by the end-user before application is, therefore, unnecessary.

Aqueous dispersions and mulsions, for example compositions obtained by diluting the SC of the invention with water, also lie within the scope of the invention.

As a commodity, the compositions preferably may be in a concentrated form, whereas the end user generally employs diluted compositions. The compositions may be diluted to a concentration down to 0. 001% of active ingredient. The desired dose usually is in the range from 0. 01 to 10 kg a. i./ha.

For a more clear understanding of the invention, specific examples are set forth below. These examples are merely illustrations and are not to be understood as limiting the scope and underlying principles of the invention in any way.

Various modifications of the invention in addition to those shown and described herein will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following examples
