Provided are methods, kits and compositions suitable for use in organic production for killing, controlling or suppressing a plant by administering to surfaces of the plant a herbicide composition comprising a herbicidally effective limonene component and an emulsifying agent in an aqueous emulsion, wherein the composition has a pH greater than 5. Also provided are methods, kits and compositions for killing, controlling or suppressing a plant, comprising administering to surfaces of the plant a herbicide composition comprising a herbicidally effective limonene component and an emulsifying agent in an aqueous emulsion, wherein the composition includes a wetting agent and an optional oil. Also provided are methods, kits and compositions for killing, controlling or suppressing a plant, comprising administering to surfaces of the plant a herbicide composition comprising a herbicidally effective limonene component, an emulsifying agent and optionally an added oil component in an aqueous emulsion, wherein the composition has a pH greater than 5 and includes a wetting agent. All components of the compositions suitable for use in organic production contain components which are either natural products obtained by non-chemical means and/or are included on the Environmental Protection Agency's List of Inert Ingredients (List 4A and 4B).
