The New Zealand Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has scheduled a hearing for an application from Dow AgroSciences to import for release the herbicide GF-2687. This herbicide contains two active ingredients that are new to New Zealand, halauxifen‑methyl and florasulam. It is intended to be used for the control of broadleaf weeds in cereal crops, including wheat and barley.
The application from Dow AgroSciences (NZ) Ltd is for a wettable granule herbicide containing two ingredients that have not previously been approved under the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms (HSNO) Act and which are not components in any approved formulations.
