This growing season, farmers have had a new problem with off-target drift of the Dicamba herbicide.

The drift caused big problems in Arkansas and Missouri, with Iowa receiving almost 100 complaints of drift on soybeans which caused damage.

BASF unveiled a new Dicamba product with far less drift potential. The product also matches with Dicamba resistant seed from major suppliers.

Our farm broadcaster Ben Nuelle talked about Dicamba drift with Gary Schmitz, BASF Midwest regional technical service manager, at the Farm Progress Show in Decatur, Illinois.
