Disclosed are compositions and methods related to powder and granular concentrate pesticide formulations. As disclosed, suspo-emulsions comprising pesticide actives may be prepared using a high purity, high molecular weight lignosulfonate as a stabilizer. The resulting suspo-emulsions may then be dried to obtain a powder or granular concentrate where the high molecular weight lignosulfonate acts as a solid matrix for the pesticide actives. The powder or granular concentrate formulations thus formed have high loading rates, good storage properties and are easily reconstituted when added to water. |
