Aqueous herbicide concentrates containing a herbicide (such as an auxinic herbicide), a surfactant, and a fatty acid alkyl ester, a fatty acid amide, and/or a triglyceride fatty acid ester and the use of aqueous herbicide spray mixtures incorporating such concentrates are described. The aqueous herbicide concentrates described herein include from 5 to 90 weight percent of a water soluble salt of a herbicide, from 0.1 to 20 weight percent of a surfactant, and from 0.1 to 20 weight percent of a fatty acid alkyl ester, fatty acid amide, and/or a triglyceride fatty acid ester. The aqueous herbicide concentrate is a transparent, homogeneous liquid that forms a stable emulsion upon dilution into a spray solution.
