The Illinois Department of Agriculture has released emergency administrative rules detailing additional restrictions for dicamba application on soybeans for the 2021 growing season.
In October, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced that it had renewed the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act registrations for three dicamba pesticides for growing seasons 2021-2025. Contrary to prior practice, the EPA declared that the only way for states to add safety restrictions to these products is through Section 24(a) of the act, which allows a state to add restrictions through its rule-making process.
