ITC Avances Petition Over 2,4-D Imports

The International Trade Commission will move forward with a petition from Corteva to place anti-dumping and countervailing duties on 2,4-D imports from China and India. A coalition of national farm groups representing corn, soybean, wheat, barley, durum and sorghum urged the ITC to vote against advancing this petition. National Corn Growers Association President Harold Wolle, who farms in Minnesota, said these tariffs will hurt Rural America. “Corn prices are already low and input costs have been rising. This decision will only compound our problems.” The final stage in the ITC process will happen in early 2025.
