Arkansas dicamba proposed regs loosening

Arkansas farmers will no longer be banned from using dicamba herbicides after April 15^th if a proposed rule goes into force.  The Arkansas State Plant Board has adopted changes for the 2019 growing season, with restrictions for application between May 26^th and October 31^st. The rule also includes buffer zones and prohibits the mixing of dicamba with glyphosate between April 16^th and May 25^th.

Arkansas’ full Joint Budget Committee must approve the rule.
