28. According to Brinker, antidote compounds may be either applied to the seeds (pre-
emergent) or to the plants (post-emergent). Thus, Brinker describes various methods
of using the antidote compounds as follows:
Effective weed control coupled with low crop injury is a result
of treatment of a plant locus with a combination of herbicide
compound and antidote compound. By application to the “plant
locus” is meant application to the plant growing medium, such as soil,
as well as to the seeds, emerging seedlings, roots, stems, leaves, or
other plant parts.
The phrase “combination of herbicide compound and antidote
compound” embraces various methods of treatment. For example, the
soil of a plant locus may be treated with a “tank-mix” composition
containing a mixture of the herbicide and the antidote which is “in
combination”. Or, the soil may be treated with the herbicide and
antidote compounds separately so that the “combination” is made on,
or in, the soil. After such treatments of the soil with a mixture of
herbicide and antidote or by separate or sequential application of the
herbicide and antidote to the soil, the herbicide and antidote may be
mixed into or incorporated into the soil either by mechanical mixing
of the soil with implements or by “watering in” by rainfall or irrigation.
The soil of a plant locus may also be treated with antidote by
application of the antidote In a dispersible-concentrate form such as
a granule. The granule may be applied to a furrow which is prepared
for receipt of the crop seed and the herbicide may be applied to the
plant locus either before or after in-furrow placement of the antidote-
containing granule so that the herbicide and antidote form a
“combination”. Crop seed may be treated or coated with the antidote
