There seems to be some confusion regarding the restrictions for #dicamba use preplant in soybean. Here is some guidance: Currently, dicamba can legally be applied in the spring at least 14 days before planting soybean when using 8 fl oz of Clarity, and 28 days before planting

May 14 2025 and our early October 2024 drilled cereal rye #covercrop at Brooklyn, WI has headed already. From now on, it will be consuming tremendous amount of water from the soil. Given the dry conditions across southern Wisconsin, it’s time to consider terminating it.
