by\u00a0Dr. Scott Nolte, Dr. Pete Dotray, & Dr. Gaylon Morgan<\/p>\n

In late October 2018, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced they will extend the registration of dicamba for two years (until December 20, 2020) for over-the-top (OTT) weed control in dicamba-tolerant cotton and soybean.\u00a0 The extended labels include changes to ensure these products continue to be used effectively and to address concerns about off-target movement.\u00a0 Initial label changes state that only certified applicators may apply dicamba OTT, prohibit OTT applications after 60 days after planting for cotton (45 days for soybean), limit the number of OTT applications to two for both cotton and soybean, allow applications one hour after sunrise to two hours before sunset, and in counties where endangered species exist, maintain the downwind 110 foot buffer and add a 57-foot buffer around the other sides of the target field.\u00a0 Some of these new changes may be different before the 2019 growing season pending 24C requests that have been submitted to the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA).\u00a0 Upon approval, the 24c labels will be available on the Texas Department of Ag website (www.texasagriculture.gov\/RegulatoryPrograms\/Pesticides<\/a>).\u00a0 Engenia\u00ae herbicide (BASF Corporation), XtendiMax\u00ae herbicide with VaporGrip\u00ae Technology (Bayer CropScience), and DuPont\u00ae FeXapan\u00ae herbicide Plus VaporGrip\u00ae Technology (Corteva AgriscienceTM<\/sup>) are US EPA Restricted Use Pesticides (RUP) and State Limited Use (SLU) pesticides in Texas, which requires sale to and use only be certified applicators.\u00a0 This training is not a substitute for the state-specified certified applicator training, which is required to purchase and use RUPs.<\/p>\n

In addition to the EPA mandated dicamba applicator training, TDA has added 2,4-D Choline formulations (Enlist Duo\u00ae and Enlist OneTM<\/sup>) for use on 2,4-D tolerant crops to be included in these mandatory trainings.\u00a0 These Enlist products are State Limited Use pesticides in Texas.\u00a0 They can be sold to and used only by certified applicators or those working under the supervision of a certified applicator.<\/p>\n

The two hour 2019 mandated Auxin Training will include the following topics:\u00a0 1) why do auxin herbicides require additional precautions, 2) label requirements for approved auxin formulations, 3) understanding temperature inversions, 4) spray system hygiene, 5) record keeping, and 6) using dicamba and 2,4-D in a weed management system.\u00a0 The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service will be providing a 2-hour in-person course, approved by TDA, that will fulfill the training requirements for Dicamba and 2,4-D Choline products and will include 2 hours of Laws and Regs.\u00a0 Contact your county extension agent for training locations, dates, and times.\u00a0 BASF Corporation, Bayer CropScience, and Corteva Agriscience also will be requesting TDA-approved training courses that will focus on their specific technology only and will therefore be 1-hour 1 CEU courses.<\/p>\n
