Investigations into dicamba complaints reveal a pattern of label violations in Minnesota.
The state department of ag says that growers are basically not paying attention to what is downwind when they make an application. They are also failing to document necessary information to the label.
A state official tells Brownfield Ag News that the fine is the equivalent of an expensive speeding ticket. Last year, Minnesota received more than 300 reports of dicamba misuse.
