Specification

The present invention relates to synergistic formulation for pestcidal compositions comprising bioactive amounts of (A) a fungicide selected from class of SDHI (Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor); (B) an insecticide selected from the class of neonicotinoids, chordotonal organs modulators, diamides, metadiamides, isoxazolines, insecticides with unknow mode of action or unclassified or mixture thereof. The present invention further relates to process of preparing said composition along with at least one inactive excipients and formulation thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Combination of insecticides and fingicides are used to broaden the spectrum of control of insect and fungi, to improve the pest control with synergistc effect, reduce dosage, thereby reducing environmental impact, to broaden the spectrum of control, i.e. chewing and sucking insects at a time, decrease chances of development and management of resistance and to enhance residual control so lesser the number of sprays for crop protections and minimizing the pesticidal load in ecosystem. The combination of insecticides at times demonstrate an additive or synergistic effect that results in an improved control on the pests.
Insecticide or pesticides are used widely and very frequently in commercial agriculture
and have enabled an enormous increase in crop yields and product quality which
ultimately increased the ease to farmers in term of economic advantage as well as ease of farming activities.
There are many combinations of insecticide along with fungicides known in the art for the control of soil borne pests. For example, WO2014130409 patent relates to relates to certain pyrazole derivatives, their N-oxides and salts, and to mixtures and compositions comprising such pyrazole derivatives and methods for using such pyrazole derivatives and their mixtures and compositions as fungicides. The patent further relates to disclosing fluxapyroxad and cyclaniliprole along with other pesticidal agents.
US20190322631 patent relates to pesticidal composition agriculturally useful salts and to their use for controlling phytopathogenic fungi, or to a method for combating phytopathogenic harmful fungi, which process comprises treating the fungi, the plants, the soil or seeds to be protected against fungal attack and to mixtures comprising at least one such compound and at least one further pesticidally active substance selected from the group consisting of herbicides, safeners, fungicides, insecticides, and plant growth regulators. The patent further relates composition comprising fluxapyroxad and flupyrimin along with other pesticidal agents.
WO2015157005 patent relates to certain substituted tolyl compounds, their N-oxides and salts, and to mixtures and compositions comprising such pyrazole derivatives and methods for using such substituted tolyl compounds and their mixtures and compositions as fungicides. The patent further relates composition comprising fluxapyroxad and triflumezopyrim along with other pesticidal agents.
There is however a need for improvement of these combinations. Single active combinations used over a long period of time has resulted in resistance. With the onset of resistance to certain pests, there is a need in the art for a combination of actives that decreases chances of resistance and improves the spectrum of disease and pest control.
However still there is a need for a composition comprises of a fungicide selected from class of SDHI (Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors); and an insecticide selected from the class of neonicotinoids, chordotonal organs modulators, diamides, metadiamides, isoxazolines, insecticides with unknow mode of action or unclassified which overcomes some of the existing problems and can be prepared easily without much complex manufacturing process.
In general use, the pesticide actives are used in the form of a dilute aqueous composition because it can attain a good interaction with the target organism, such as plants, fungi and insects. However, most active pesticide compounds that are used as pesticides are only sparingly or even insoluble in water. The low solubility of such compounds present the challenges and difficulties to formulator in formulating pesticide compounds in stable formulations that can be easily stored for a long time and which still have a high stability and effective activity until end use. This problem especially occurs and may get worsen if more than one active compound is present in the composition.

Therefore the object of the present invention is to provide novel synergistic and stable Oil Dispersion formulation, Suspension concentrate (SC) formulation comprising (A) a fungicide selected from class of SDHI (Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor); (B) an insecticide selected from the class of neonicotinoids, chordotonal organs modulators, diamides, metadiamides, isoxazolines, insecticides with unknow mode of action or unclassified or mixture thereof.
Therefore, one object of the present invention is to provide improved combinations of insecticides and fungicides for the control of foliar feeder and soil born pests. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method and a composition for controlling insect pests.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide improved combinations of insecticide and fungicides that promote plant health.

The term "health of a plant" or "plant health" is defined as a condition of the plant and/or its products. As a result of the improved health, yield, plant vigor, quality and tolerance to abiotic or biotic stress are increased. Noteworthy, the health of a plant when applying the method according to the invention, is increased independently of the pesticidal properties of the active ingredients used because the increase in health is not based upon the reduced disease pressure but instead on complex physiological and metabolic reactions which result for example in an activation of the plant's own natural defense system. As a result, the health of a plant is increased even in the absence of diseases pressure. Accordingly, in an especially preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the health of a plant is increased both in the presence and absence of biotic or abiotic stress factors. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or they may result from each other. An increase in plant vigor may for example result in an increased yield and/or tolerance to abiotic or biotic stress. One indicator for the condition of the plant is the yield. "Yield" is to be understood as any plant product of economic value that is produced by the plant such as grains, fruits in the proper sense, vegetables, nuts, grains, seeds, wood (e.g. in the case of silviculture plants) or even flowers (e.g. in the case of gardening plants, ornamentals). The plant products may in addition be further utilized and/or processed after harvesting.
In an especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the yield of the treated plant is increased.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the yield of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically.
According to the present invention, "increased yield" of a plant, in particular of an agricultural, silvicultural and/or horticultural plant means that the yield of a product of the respective plant is increased by a measurable amount over the yield of the same product of the plant produced under the same conditions, but without the application of the mixture according to the invention.
Increased yield can be characterized, among others, by the following improved proper-ties of the plant: increased plant, weight, increased plant height, increased biomass such as higher overall fresh weight (FW), increased number of flowers per plant, higher grain yield, more tillers or side shoots (branches), larger leaves, increased shoot growth, increased protein content, increased oil content, increased starch content, increased pigment content, increased leaf are index.
According to the present invention, the yield is increased by at least 5 %, preferable by 5 to 10 %, more preferable by 10 to 20 %, or even 20 to 30 % compared to the untreated control plants or plants treated with pesticides in a way different from the method according to the present invention. In general, the yield increase may even be higher.
A further indicator for the condition of the plant is the plant vigor. The plant vigor becomes manifest in several aspects such as the general visual appearance. In another especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the plant vigor of the treated plant is increased. In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the plant vigor of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically. Improved plant vigor can be characterized, among others, by the following improved properties of the plant: improved vitality of the plant, improved plant growth, improved plant development, improved visual appearance, improved plant stand (less plant verse/lodging), improved emergence, enhanced root growth and/or more developed root system, enhanced nodulation, in particular rhizobium nodulation, bigger leaf blade, bigger size, increased plant weight, increased plant height, increased tiller number, increased number of side shoots, increased number of flowers per plant, increased shoot growth, increased root growth (extensive root system), increased yield when grown on poor soils or unfavorable climate, enhanced photosynthetic activity (e.g. based on increased stomatal conductance and/or increased C02 assimilation rate), increased stomatal conductance, increased C02 assimilation rate, enhanced pigment content (e.g. chlorophyll content), earlier flowering, earlier fruiting, earlier and improved germination, earlier grain maturity, improved self-defense mechanisms, improved stress tolerance and resistance of the plants against biotic and abiotic stress factors such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, heat stress, cold stress, drought stress, UV stress and/or salt stress, less non-productive tillers, less dead basal leaves, less input needed (such as fertilizers or water), greener leaves, complete maturation under shortened vegetation periods, less fertilizers needed, less seeds needed, easier harvesting, faster and more uniform ripening, longer shelf-life, longer panicles, delay of senescence, stronger and/or more productive tillers, better extractability of ingredients, improved quality of seeds (for being seeded in the following seasons for seed production), better nitrogen uptake, improved reproduction, reduced production of ethylene and/or the inhibition of its reception by the plant.
The improvement of the plant vigor according to the present invention particularly means that the improvement of any one or several or all of the above mentioned plant characteristics are improved independently of the pesticidal action of the mixture or active ingredients (components).
Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the "quality" of a plant and/or its products.
In an especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the quality of the treated plant is increased.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the quality of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically.
According to the present invention, enhanced quality means that certain plant characteristics such as the content or composition of certain ingredients are increased or improved by a measurable or noticeable amount over the same factor of the plant produced under the same conditions, but without the application of the mixtures of the present invention. Enhanced quality can be characterized, among others, by following improved properties of the plant or its product: increased nutrient content, increased protein content, increased content of fatty acids, increased metabolite content, increased carotenoid content, increased sugar content, increased amount of essential amino acids, improved nutrient composition, improved protein composition, improved composition of fatty acids, improved metabolite composition, improved carotenoid composition, improved sugar composition, improved amino acids composition, improved or optimal fruit color, improved leaf color, higher storage capacity, higher processability of the harvested products.
Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the plant's tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors. Biotic and abiotic stress, especially over longer terms, can have harmful effects on plants. Biotic stress is caused by living organisms while abiotic stress is caused for example by environmental extremes. According to the present invention, "enhanced tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors" means (1.) that certain negative factors caused by biotic and/or abiotic stress are diminished in a measurable or noticeable amount as compared to plants exposed to the same conditions, but without being treated with a mixture according to the invention and (2.) that the negative effects are not diminished by a direct action of the mixture according to the invention on the stress factors, e.g. by its fungicidal action which directly destroys the microorganisms or diseases, but rather by a stimulation of the plants' own defensive reactions against said stress factors.
Formulation of the present invention can be in any of the formulations selected from Capsule suspension (CS), Dispersible concentrate (DC), Powder for dry seed treatment (DS), Emulsifiable concentrate (EC), Emulsion, water in oil (EO), Emulsion for seed treatment (ES), Emulsion, oil in water (EW), Flowable suspension/concentrate for seed treatment (FS), Granule/ soil applied (GR), Controlled (Slow or Fast) release granules (CR), Solution for seed treatment (LS), Micro-emulsion (ME), Oil dispersion (OD), Oil miscible flowable concentrate (oil miscible suspension (OF), Oil miscible liquid (OL), Suspension concentrate (= flowable concentrate) (SC), Suspo-emulsion (SE), Water soluble granule (SG), Soluble concentrate (SL), Water soluble powder (SP), Water dispersible granule (WG or WDG), Wettable powder (WP), Water dispersible powder for slurry treatment (WS), A mixed formulation of CS and SC (ZC), A mixed formulation of CS and SE (ZE), A mixed formulation of CS and EW (ZW).

The composition of the present invention in addition to bioactive amounts of active ingredients further comprises inactive excipients including but not limited to dispersant or dispersing agent, anti-freezing agent, anti-foam agent, wetting agent, suspension aid, thickener, stabilizing agent, suspending agent, emulsifying agent and preservative.
A wetting agent is a substance that when added to a liquid increases the spreading or penetration power of the liquid by reducing the interfacial tension between the liquid and the surface on which it is spreading. Wetting agents are used for two main functions in agrochemical formulations: during processing and manufacture to increase the rate of wetting of powders in water to make concentrates for soluble liquids or suspension concentrates; and during mixing of a product with water in a spray tank or other vessel to reduce the wetting time of wettable powders and to improve the penetration of water into water-dispersible granules.
Examples of wetting agent used herein for SC (Suspension concentrate) formulation include but not limited to ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer, polyarylphenyl ether phosphate, ethoxylated fatty alcohol, sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, alkyl diphenyl sulfonates, sodium isopropyl naphthalene sulfonate, alkyl naphthalene sulfonate, Organosilicone surfactants includes trisiloxane ethoxylate, polydimethylsiloxane, polyoxyethylene methyl polysiloxane, polyoxyalkylene methyl polysiloxane, polyether polymethyl siloxane copolymer, heptamethyl trisiloxane, Polyalkyleneoxide modified heptamethyl trisiloxane, polyether modified polysiloxane, may or may not be in modified form, may be liquid or powder form or mixture thereof.
Examples of wetting agent used herein for Oil Dispersion (OD) includes but not limited to ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer, polyarylphenyl ether phosphate, ethoxylated fatty alcohol, sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, alkyldiphenyl sulfonates, sodium isopropyl naphthalene sulfonate, alkylnaphthalene sulfonate.
More particularly wetting spreading and penetrating agent for the present agrochemical composition and Suspension Concentrate (SC) and Oil Dispersion (OD) formulation thereof is organosilicone surfactants Trisiloxane Ethoxylate.
Trisiloxane ethoxylate is a Non-ionic surfactant that improves the spray coverage and promotes spray volume reduction. In the present invention it acts as a Wetting spreading and penetrating agent for the formulation comprising present agrochemical composition. Trisiloxane Ethoxylate wetting agent/spray adjuvant is a fast spreading surfactant/ wetting agent. It lowers the surface tension of spray solutions, beyond that which is achievable with conventional adjuvants. Trisiloxane ethoxylate promotes rapid uptake of agrochemicals (rainfastness). Trisiloxane ethoxylate surfactants lower the surface tension of the water, allowing the rapid coverage and penetration of cuticular waxes on hydrophobic leaf surfaces and causes an effect known as stomatal flooding; the almost instantaneous entrance of the solution into the openings in the plant surfaces. This fast penetration results in “rainfastness” as the delivery of the pesticide into the plant has occurred and further rainfall cannot remove the residue.

Trisiloxane ethoxylate is also acts as a Superspreader for soluble liquid and emulsifiable concentrate formulations. “Superspreading”, or “superwetting”, is the process by which a small droplet of an aqueous diluted solution of certain Trisiloxane Ethoxylate spreads on a moderately hydrophobic surface to a very large area, usually in a short time period (~ tens of seconds).
Further examples of wetting-spreading-penetrating agent used herein for SC (Suspension concentrate) formulation include but not limited to organosilicone surfactants includes trisiloxane ethoxylate, polydimethylsiloxane, polyoxyethylene methyl polysiloxane, polyoxyalkylene methyl polysiloxane, polyether polymethyl siloxane copolymer, heptamethyl trisiloxane, Polyalkyleneoxide modified heptamethyl trisiloxane, polyether modified polysiloxane, may or may not be in modified form, may be liquid or powder form or mixture thereof.
Further examples of wetting-spreading-penetrating agent used herein for Oil Dispersion (OD) includes but not limited to organosilicone surfactants includes trisiloxane ethoxylate, polydimethylsiloxane, polyoxyethylene methyl polysiloxane, polyoxyalkylene methyl polysiloxane, polyether polymethyl siloxane copolymer, heptamethyl trisiloxane, Polyalkyleneoxide modified heptamethyl trisiloxane, polyether modified polysiloxane, may or may not be in modified form, may be liquid or powder form or mixture thereof.
A dispersant or a dispersing agent is a substance which adsorbs onto the surface of particles and helps to preserve the state of dispersion of the particles and prevents them from re-aggregating. Dispersants are added to agrochemical formulations to facilitate dispersion and suspension during manufacture, and to ensure the particles re-disperse into water in a spray tank. They are widely used in wettable powders, suspension concentrates and water-dispersible granules. Surfactants that are used as dispersants have the ability to adsorb strongly onto a particle surface and provide a charged or steric barrier to re-aggregation of particles. The most commonly used surfactants are anionic, non-ionic, or mixtures of the two types. For wettable powder formulations, the most common dispersants are sodium lingo sulphonates. In recent years, new types of very high molecular weight polymeric surfactants have been developed as dispersants. These have very long hydrophobic ‘backbones’ and a large number of ethylene oxide chains forming the ‘teeth’ of a ‘comb’ surfactant. These high molecular weight polymers can give very good long-term stability to suspension concentrates because the hydrophobic backbones have many anchoring points onto the particle surfaces.
Examples of dispersants or dispersing agent used herein for SC (Suspension concentrate) formulation include but not limited to alkylated naphthalene sulfonate, sodium salt, sodium salt of naphthalene sulfonate condensate, sodium ligno sulfonate, sodium ploycarboxylate,EO/PO based copolymer, phenol sulfonate, sodium methyl oleoyl taurate, styrene acrylic acid copolymer, propyleneoxide-ethyleneoxide-copolymer, polyethylene glycol 2,4,6-tristyrylphenyl ether, tristyrylphenol-polyglycolether-phosphate, tristyrylphenole with 16 moles EO, tristyrylphenol-polyglycolether-phosphate, oleyl-polyglycolether with ethylene oxide, tallow fattyamine polyethylene oxide, nonylphenol polyglycolether with 9-10 moles ethylene oxide.

Antifoaming agent for the present formulation is selected from various compounds and selectively used according to the formulation. Generally, there are two types of antifoam agents, namely silicones and non-silicones. Silicones are usually aqueous emulsions of dimethyl poly siloxane while the non-silicone anti-foam agents are water- insoluble oils, such as octanol and nonanol, or silica. In both cases, the function of the anti-foam agent is to displace the surfactant from the air-water interface.

Suspension aid or the suspending agent in the present description denotes a natural or synthetic, organic or inorganic material with which the active substance is combined in order to facilitate its application to the plant, to the seeds or to the soil. This carrier is hence generally inert, and it must be agriculturally acceptable, in particular to the plant being treated. The carrier may be solid (clays, natural or synthetic silicates, silica, resins, waxes, solid fertilizers, and the like or mixtures thereof) or liquid (water, alcohols, ketones, petroleum fractions, aromatic or paraffinic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, liquefied gases, and the like or mixtures thereof).
Examples of suspending agent used herein for SC (Suspension concentrate) formulation include but not limited to Aluminum Magnesium Silicate, Bentonite clay, Silica, Attapulgite clay.

Examples of stabilizer used herein for Oil Dispersion (OD) formulation includes but not limited to hectorite clay, aluminium magnesium silicate, bentonite clay, silica, attapulgite clay.
Carrier for the present formulation is selected from selected from various compounds and selectively used according to the formulation. Certain vegetables/plant/seed oils as a carrier, increases the bioefficacy and residual control of products through increase in penetration of active ingredients into leaf surface, improves the retention of active ingredietns on leaf surface especially on waxy leaf surface, improves the spreading properties and thereby improves the spray coverage.
More particularly Carrier for the present Oil Dispersion (OD) formulation is blend of methylated seed oil, polyalkyleneoxide modified polydimethylsiloxane and alkylphenol ethoxylate.
Methylated seed oil (MSO) is a kind of fatty acid from seed oil esterified with methyl alcohol. For oil-based adjuvant, droplet spread on leaf surfaces and herbicide penetration seem to be the two predominant factors regarding the mechanism of the enhancement in pesticide efficacy. MSO decrease the surface tension and contact angle and then increase the wetted areas of droplets on both waxy and hairy leaves. Further MSO enhances the efficacy by increasing the absorption of the pesticide. Methylated seed oils (MSO) are better solvents than petroleum-based oils. They have good spreading and penetration properties. Polyalkyleneoxide modified polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) is a surfactant and is a component of defoamers. PDMS, in a modified form, is used as a penetrant and is a critical ingredient in water-repelling coatings. A biochemical penetrant is a chemical that increases the ability of a poison to apply its toxic effect to a living organism. PDMS with its inherent chemical properties it acts as Surfactant, Emulsifier, Dispersant, Flow Control Agent, and Lubricant in formulation preparation. Alkylphenol ethoxylates are nonionic surfactants, consisting of branched-chain alkylphenols, which react with ethylene oxide, producing an ethoxylate chain. Alkylphenol ethoxylates is having inherent emulsifying activity and acts as an excellent carrier when blended with other formulation adjuvants.
Further examples of Carrier or diluting agent used herein for Oil Dispersion (OD) formulation includes but not limited to as solvent for the present formulation is selected from and not limited to vegetable oil (plant, seed or tree) or its alkylated. The alkylated vegetable oil may be methylated vegetable oil or ethylated vegetable oil. The vegetable oils include olive oil, kapok oil, castor oil, papaya oil, camellia oil, sesame oil, corn oil, rice bran oil, cotton seed oil, soybean oil, groundnut oil, rapeseed-mustard oil, linseed oil, tung oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, coconut oil. The alkyl ester of vegetable oils includes methyl ester, ethyl ester, propyl ester or butyl ester of vegetable oils. Some of the examples are rapeseed oil methyl ester, rapeseed oil ethyl ester, rapeseed oil propyl esters, rapeseed oil butyl esters, soybean oil methyl ester, soybean oil ethyl ester, soybean oil propyl ester, soybean oil butyl ester, castor oil methyl ester, castor oil ethyl ester, castor oil propyl ester, castor oil butyl ester, cotton seed oil methyl ester, cotton seed oil ethyl ester, cotton seed oil butyl ester, cotton seed oil propyl ester, tall oil fatty acids esters-tallow methyl ester, tallow ethyl ester, tallow propyl ester, diesel, mineral oil, fatty acid amides (e.g. C1 -C3 amines, alkylamines or alkanolamines with C6–C18 carboxylic acids), fatty acids, alkyl esters of fatty acids, methyl and ethyl oleate, methyl and ethyl soyate, alkyl benzenes and alkylnaphthalenes, polyalkylene glycol ethers, fatty acid diesters, fatty alkylamides and diamides, dialkylene carbonates, ketones and alcohols. The above oil based carrier/diluting agents may be used as solo or mixture of two or more if desired.

Procedure: Manufacturing process of Suspension Concentrate (SC)
Preparation of Suspension Concentrate (SC) formulation:
Step 1 2% Gel Preparation: Charge the required quantity of water to a vessel, equipped with a high shear stirrer and start the agitation. Add the required amount of preservative. Mix until homogenous. Add the required amount of thickener and mix vigorously until it is fully wetted.
Step 2 Charge the required quantity of water to a vessel, equipped with bulk agitator and a high shear homogenizer and start agitation. Add the required amount of ant freezing agent and mix until uniform. Add the antifoaming agent and ensure that it is well dispersed. Add the wetting and dispersing agent and mix until uniform. Ensure that the dispersing agent is fully dispersed.
Step 3 Now add the active ingredient and continue agitating the vessel contents until all components get dissolved. Mill this pre-mix through a Colloid mill and subsequently through a Dyno mill to meet the specified particle size.
Step 4 Now add remaining antifoaming agent to this SC mill base to a vessel, equipped with bulk agitator. Mix until uniform. Add the required amount of 2% aqueous pre-gel and suspending agent and continue agitation until the formulation is homogeneous and has the target viscosity is reached.
Step 5 Final product is sent for QC approval.
Step 6 After approval, material is packed in required pack sizes.

Procedure: Manufacturing process of Oil dispersion (OD) formulation:

Preparation of Oil dispersion (OD) formulation:
Part A Preparation of the liquid premix
Step 1 Charge Vegetable oil or solvent or both into a vessel with anchor stirrer.
Step 2 Under stirring, add the emulsifier and dispersing agent and stir until all ingredients are dissolved completely.
Part B Preparation of the slurry
Step 1 Now, charge the liquid premix into a second vessel, equipped with a cooling and heating device and a high shear stirrer.
Step 2 Add the active ingredient and homogenize thoroughly. Pre-mill this mixture and finally mill it using a bead mill to achieve a particle size distribution as required by the specification.
Part C Preparation of the Thickener gel
Step 1 Charge the vegetable/plant/seed oil or solvent to the vessel, equipped with a high shear stirrer.
Step 2 Add gradually the thickener which is organophilic clay, maintaining high-shear mixing throughout. Stirring is continued until thoroughly mixed.
Step 3 Under stirring, the thickener activating agent propylene carbonate is added. Allow the gel to swell whilst maintaining mixing.
Part D Preparation of the final formulation
Step 1 Now add the thickener gel or silica and disperse the mixture by using a high shear stirrer.
Step 2 Finally add the recommended wetting and spreading agent or adjuvants (silicone or non-silicone based) to this formulation and disperse by using high shear stirrer.
Step 3 Check the finished formulation to specification.
Step 4 After approval, material is packed in required pack sizes.

Biological Examples:
A synergistic effect exists wherever the action of a combination of active ingredient is greater than the sum of the action of each of the components alone. Therefore, a synergistically effective amount or an effective amount of a synergistic composition or combination is an amount that exhibits greater pesticidal activity than the sum of the pesticidal activities of the individual components.
In the field of agriculture, it is often understood that the term “synergy” is as defined by Colby S.R. in an article entitled “ Calculation of the synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations” published in the journal Weeds, 1967, 15, p.20-22, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The action expected for a given combination of two or three active components can be calculated as follows:

FIELD BIO-EFFICACY STUDIES:
Various formulations of SDHI fungicides (Thifluzamide, Fluxapyroxad) and insecticide has been developed in the laboratory and evaluated under the field condition for its efficacy and synergism.
Experiment 1-Cotrol of insect-pests and diseases in paddy (Oryza sativa) crop.
Crop & Variety : Paddy, BPT 5204
Location : Kurud, Chhattisgarh
Treatments : 8
Plot size : 50 sq.m.
Crop age : 60 days after transplanting.
Spray water volume : 400 liter per hectare
Method of Application: Foliar spray with battery operated knapsack sprayer fitted with hollow cone nozzle.
Agronomic Practices : Except insecticidal and fungicidal applications, all agronomic practices followed as per the crop requirement.
Observation Methods:
Brown Plant Hopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens) : The observation was recorded by counting the no. of live BPH per hill. Record the observations from 10 hills per plot at 5th day after application. The percent insect control was worked out by below formula:

Sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani) control : Observations was recorded on disease severity in each treatment before and at 14 days after spray. The observations of severity of sheath blight disease were recorded using 0-9 grade (SES,IRRI 1996). Twenty randomly selected hills were scored as per scale. The percent disease index (PDI) of plants was calculated by the following formula.


Sheath blight disease Grading (0-9 scale) :
Grade Symptoms
0 No incidence
1 Less than 1% sheath area infected
3 1-5% sheath area infected
5 6-25% sheath area infected
7 26-50% sheath area infected
9 51-100% sheath area infected
