BASF’s Asmus: Volatility ‘Not a Driving Factor’ Behind Dicamba Drift

The Commission is expected to set a new date for a vote during the first half of November.

Monsanto is challenging the restrictions as Arkansas edges closer to adopting a temporary ban on dicamba herbicides for next year.

SHIELDEX 400SC controls a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds, including troublesome weeds such as tall waterhemp, Palmer amaranth, giant ragweed and giant foxtail.

The assets to be acquired include Bayer’s global glufosinate-ammonium non-selective herbicide business, commercialized under the Liberty, Basta and Finale brands, and seed businesses for key row crops in select markets.

Updates include mandatory training, new record keeping requirements, and a Restricted Use Pesticide (RUP) designation.

Manufacturers have voluntarily agreed to label changes that impose additional requirements for over-the-top use of these products next year.

The politically charged debate surrounding the future use of a number of key agricultural pesticides continues in Europe this week.

The Board’s regulatory changes concerning the use of dicamba will now be subject to a 30-day public comment period which will be followed by a public hearing that will be held on Nov. 8.

Concept to be presented at Agritechnica 2017 in Hanover.
