An emulsifiable concentrate of agriculturally active chemical which, upon dilution, produces a highly stable emulsion and avoids precipitation of the active ingredient on extended storage. The inventive concentrate is composed of an agriculturally active chemical, a surfactant, and a solvent composed of first and second components. The first component has a hydrophilic property sufficiently high so as to solubilize the agriculturally active chemical. The second component is a hydrophobic solvent and is composed of at least between about 5 to 90 percent by weight of a compound having the structure: <IMAGE> wherein R1 is an alkyl having from 5 to 18 carbon atoms. |
