The Environmental Protection Agency has greenlit three dicamaba formulations for over-the-top use for five years on cotton and soybeans, beginning in 2021 and running through 2025. On a Tuesday evening press call, EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler "stated that EPA has granted five-year registrations to two canceled dicamba herbicides -- XtendiMax and Engenia -- as well as a re-registered dicamba herbicide, Tavium," Emily Unglesbee reports for DTN/The Progressive Farmer. "All three now require a nationwide June 30 cutoff date for use in soybeans and a July 30 cutoff date for use in cotton, regardless of growth stage. The agency also announced it is limiting states' ability to add further restrictions to the federal labels."
EPA will impose further restrictions on the use of dicamba, aimed at improving its safety. Click here for a list of the new restrictions.
