On June 3, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit removed federal registrations for dicamba products from Bayer (XtendiMax), BASF (Engenia) and Corteva AgriScience (FeXapan).
The three-judge panel decided to remove the registrations because the Environmental Protection Agency failed to properly outline some of the products’ risks.
Since then, the EPA has ruled that farmers and applicators can continue using existing supplies of those products until July 31.
