LINCOLN, Neb. – Nebraska crop producers are joining others across the country in facing potential issues related to dicamba, a herbicide for broadleaf
weed control.
While the product has been available for a number of years, this was the first year that dicamba-tolerant Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybean and new dicamba-based formulations were made commercially available in Nebraska.
An estimated 500,000 acres of dicamba-tolerant soybean were planted this year across the state, but growers are concerned about broadleaf crops sensitive to the herbicide.
Amit Jhala, Nebraska Extension weed management specialist, has been responding to those concerns.
