The Minnesota Department of Agriculture is maintaining its state-specific restrictions for dicamba for 2024. Application of the BASF, Syngenta and Bayer dicamba products cannot be made after June 12 south of I-94 and after June 30 north of the interstate. There is also an 85-degree temperature cutoff. There were only 15 complaints of non-target crop damage this past year. That compares to more than 300 complaints in 2021. Minnesota Soybean Growers Association President Bob Worth, who also chairs the organization’s drift task force, said the state’s dicamba decision is good news. In a statement on the MSGA website, Worth said it is important this product stays in the toolbox.
