American Soybean Association commends U.S. EPA dicamba ruling
Oct. 16, 2017
Following last week’s announcement by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency naming certain new formulations of dicamba herbicide products as restricted-use, ASA President and Roseville, Illinois farmer Ron Moore applauded EPA and urged the industry to continue to search for answers:
“Farmers look to new innovations like dicamba-tolerant soybeans to help grow healthy, affordable food while combating pests and diseases. We’re encouraged by EPA’s label changes which we trust will allow farmers to continue to utilize this important tool while also working to protect and prevent damage to non-dicamba tolerant crops.
“Moving forward, ASA looks forward to working with EPA, states, manufacturers and our farmers to implement these changes while also seeking the root cause of this issue so new technologies can be used in years to come.”
