Herbicide composition comprises: (I) glufosinate- or glyphosate- herbicide, an imidazolinone or a protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitory azole and (II) one or more of: herbicides of type (I) other than (I) itself herbicides with foliar and/or soil activity herbicides active against dicot weeds with both foliar and soil activity against monocot weeds herbicides with foliar activity (all soya selective) and nonselective herbicides. A combination of herbicides (I) and (II) is used to control weeds in soya crops, provided that the crops are tolerant of (I) and (II), optionally in the presence of safeners, where: (I) is: (A) gluphosinate or glyphosate compounds of formula (Ia) and (Ib) and their esters and salts (B) imidazolinones or (C) protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) inhibitory azole herbicides and: (II) comprises one or more of: (1) herbicides of type (I) other than (I) itself (2) soya-selective herbicides with foliar and/or soil (residual) activity against monocot and predominantly dicot weeds (3) soya-selective herbicides active against dicot weeds (4) soya-selective herbicides with both foliar and soil activity against monocot weeds (5) soya-selective herbicides with foliar activity against monocot and dicot weeds and (6) nonselective herbicides used for specific purposes in soya. [Image] Z : OH, NHCH(CH 3)CONHCH(CH 3)COOH or NHCH(CH 3)CONHCH[CH 2CH(CH 3) 2]COOH Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for controlling weeds in tolerant soya crops, comprising applying (I) and (II), together or separately, pre- and/or post-emergence, to the plants, parts of the plants, seeds or soil (2) a herbicidal composition comprising (I) and (II) (3) use of the composition of (2) for regulating the growth of soya plants (4) use of the composition of (2) for modifying the yield or contents of soya plants. ACTIVITY : Herbicidal plant growth regulatory. MECHANISM OF ACTION : Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) inhibitor.
