Combination of herbicides and safeners

A herbicidal composition contains: (A) aryl ketone herbicide; and (B) at least one of a very wide range of specific safeners, e.g. quinoline, amide, acetonitrile, urea, phenoxyalkanoic acid, N-acylsulfonamide, acylsulfamoylbenzamide or benzo-fused cyclic ketone derivatives. A herbicidal composition contains: (A) at least one aryl ketone of formula (I); and (B) at least one safener selected from: (a) heterocycles of formula (II), quinolines of formula (III) and amides of formula (IV); (b) 1,8-naphthalic anhydride, methyl diphenylmethoxyacetate, cyanomethoxyimino-(phenyl)-acetonitrile (cyometrinil), 1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethoxyimino-(phenyl)-acetonitrile (oxabetrinil), 4'-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone O-1,3dioxolan-2-ylmethyl oxime (fluxofenim), 4,6-dichloro-2-phenylpyrimidine (fenclorim), benzyl 2-chloro-4-trifluoromethyl-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate (fluorazole), 2-dichloromethyl-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolon (MG-191), N-(4-methylphenyl)-N'-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)-urea (dymron), 1-(4-(N-2-methoxybenzoylsulfamoyl)-phenyl)-3-methyl-urea, 1-(4-(N-2-methoxybenzoylsulfamoyl)-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-urea, 1-(4-(N-4,5-dimethylbenzoylsulfamoyl)-phenyl)-3-methyl-urea, 1-(4-(N-naphthoylsulf amoyl)-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-urea, (2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-acetic acid (2,4-D), (4-chlorophenoxy)acetic acid, (R,S)-2-(4-chloro-o-tolyloxy)-propionic acid (mecoprop), 4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-butyric acid (2,4-DB), (4-chloro-o-tolyloxy)acetic acid (MCPA), 4-(4-chloro-o-tolyloxy)-butyric acid, 4-(4-chlorophenoxy)-butyric acid, 3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid (dicamba), 1-(ethoxycarbonyl)ethyl 3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoate (lactidichlor) or their salts or esters; (c) acylsulfonamides of formula (V) or their salts; (d) acylsulfamoyl-benzamide of formula (VI) or their salts; and (e) benzo-fused cyclic ketones of formula (VII) or their stereoisomers or salts: V = -CH(substituent)CO(substituent) or an isoxazole, pyrazole or cyclohexenone group; and Z' = phenyl substituted; or a benzo bi- or tricyclic group; g = 1-5; T = 1-2C alkanediyl (optionally substituted by 1 or 2 A or one (1-3C) alkoxycarbonyl); t = 1 or 2; R21 = A', alkenyl, haloalkenyl or cycloalkyl; R22 = H, A', alkenyl, alkynyl, haloalkenyl, ANHCO-A-, (2-4C) alkenylcarbamoyl-A-, A-O-A-, dioxolanyl-A-, thiazolyl, furyl, furylalkyl (no C number given), thienyl, piperidyl or optionally substituted phenyl; W = optionally substituted, partially unsaturated or aromatic 5-membered heterocyclylene containing 1-3 N or 1 or 2 N plus one O; R17, R
