Abstract

Abstract Herbicidally active thiolcarbamates are employed in combination with certain N-methylcarbamoyloxy anilides having the formula <IMAGE> in which R4 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and carbethoxymethyl, R5 is selected from the group consisting of C1-C6 alkyl, halogenated C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C6 alkoxy, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, C3-C5 alkanoylmethyl, C1-C3 alkylamino, C1-C3 dialkylamino, carbamylthiomethyl, and C2-C4 carbalkoxyamino, R6 is selected from the group consisting of C1-C3 alkyl, C2-C4 alkanoylamino, and halogen, X is selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur, and n is zero or one. In a typical application, the isonitrile is included in sufficient quantity to lessen the rate of soil degradation of the thiolcarbamate. As a result, the herbicidal effectiveness of the thiolcarbamate is enhanced and prolonged, rendering a single application of the herbicide effective over a longer period of time.
