BISMARCK – The North Dakota Department of Agriculture (NDDA) announced today it will extend the application date for the in-crop use of Dicamba on soybeans for the 2019 growing season. The new deadline is July 10 or beginning bloom (R1 growth phase), whichever comes first. In January, NDDA had approved a 24c Special Local Needs (SLN) label for the in-crop use of Dicamba on soybeans only until June 30.

“Due to persistent rain events, lack of suitable days for spraying and the delayed growth of soybeans, the last date for applications has been extended to July 10,” Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring said. “The beginning bloom (R1 growth phase) restriction is still applicable and product may not be applied if soybeans have reached this phase.”

All provisions of the federal label still apply.
