Minnesota dicamba restrictions for ’24 include date and temperature cutoffs

Minnesota has announced its dicamba guidelines for 2024.

The department of agriculture says restrictions include a date cutoff of June 12th south of I-94 and June 30th north of I-94.

Dicamba applications will also be restricted when the air temperature is above 85 degrees.

Minnesota Ag Commissioner Thom Petersen says the restrictions have been effective over the past two growing seasons, with 11 formal complaints and four responses to an informal survey alleging off-target movement.
