Abstract

The phytoxicity of a carbamate pesticide such as carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranol methylcarbamate) contained in a seed coating composition is nullified or minimized without materially reducing the pesticidal effectiveness of the carbamate by the presence in the seed coating composition of an activiated charcoal powder of neutral to acid pH.
