A final agreement regarding Bayer's dicamba settlement will be hammered out in the coming weeks. Here is what we know for now.

Insect pests are ramping up in soybean fields and careful scouting is advised.

A federal mandate vacating three dicamba registrations still stands after the Ninth Circuit denied a motion to stay and recall it.

Three judges denied an emergency motion filed to halt dicamba use and hold EPA in contempt. But the legal battle continues, as BASF has asked for a stay of the original order vacating the dicamba registrations.

The agency argued that it is overseeing a "responsible winddown of existing stocks" of dicamba that is legal under federal law.

Both southern and Midwest growers should be on the watch for these fast-moving rust diseases, which got historically early starts on corn and soybeans in the southern U.S. this year.

The emergency motion was filed late last night asking the Ninth Circuit to undo EPA's order allowing existing stocks of dicamba to be used.

The same plaintiffs that brought the recent dicamba case to the Ninth Circuit are behind a similar lawsuit targeting EPA’s registration of Enlist Duo.

The order ends sales but allows growers and commercial applicators to use any products that were in their possession as of June 3.

Absent guidance from EPA, states are making their own decisions about whether dicamba remains available to use, with uncertain legal footing.

A court order ending three dicamba registrations has thrown the industry into confusion. Here's what we know now.

Without dicamba, the options for postemergence weed control in Xtend soybean fields are sparse; cotton fields fare better.

The ruling throws into question the legality of dicamba use over millions of acres in the 2020 growing season.

The season's rapid planting pace belies a spate of rain and flooding in the eastern half of the country, as well as deepening drought in the West.

Some states have dicamba cutoff dates ranging from June 20 to June 30; Arkansas' ban starts May 25.

With wintry temperatures in the rearview mirror, now is the time for growers to walk fields, assess damage and make hard decisions about replanting or staying the course, according to agronomists.

Farmers have set planting records amid unseasonably cold temperatures and the destabilizing effects of the pandemic.

Newly emerged soybean fields will be especially at risk in regions where temperatures are forecast to drop below freezing this week.

The request is part of an effort to give EPA the data it needs to make a dicamba registration this summer.

Damage to millions of acres of winter wheat is becoming visible after temperatures plunged below freezing for several consecutive nights in mid-April.

Fungal diseases such as stripe rust, tan spot and Septoria tritici blotch are very active in the Southern Great Plains this spring.

High black cutworm and armyworm moth captures in the Eastern Corn Belt suggest crops could be at risk this May.

Most soil temperatures in the Corn and Soybean Belt are too cold to safely plant corn or soybean seeds, agronomists warn.

A string of nights with subfreezing temperatures put millions of acres of winter wheat in the Southern Great Plains at risk this week.

Many labs remain open but with limited staff and hours and new sample submission protocols.

Enlist crop acreage is expected to expand significantly this year. Here's what you need to know before spraying Enlist herbicides.

A government watchdog is looking into whether EPA acted properly when it registered dicamba in 2016 and 2018, as well as reviewing states' use of 24(c) labels, oft used for dicamba in recent years.

The typically stressful season of planting promises to be a welcome distraction from the year's chaotic developments.
