Abstract

Herbicidal compositions for reducing off-site movement or drift of herbicides are described. The herbicidal compositions can include an auxin herbicide, an oil or an ester of the oil, and a polymeric emulsifying agent, such as glycerol ethoxylate-polyricinoleate, glycerol ethoxylate-poly-(12-hydroxystearate), polyethylene glycol (PEG)-polyricinoleate, PEG-poly-(12-hydroxystearate), and a combination thereof. Methods of making such compositions and methods of making such polymeric emulsifying agents are also described.
