June 20 Is the Last Day to Apply Dicamba Postemergence in Dicamba-Tolerant Soybean in SouthDakota

By Eric Jones

The cutoff date to apply dicamba (Engenia, Tavium, Xtendimax) postemergence in dicamba-tolerant soybeans planted in South Dakota is June 20. Plan accordingly to apply dicamba before June 20. Consider applying dicamba early postemergence if soybean are being planted later in the season. Since dicamba does not have grass activity, an effective herbicide (for example, glyphosate “Roundup”) should be co-applied to control grass weeds. Avoid tank-mixing grass-killing herbicides (for example, Assure, Poast, or Select) with dicamba, as reduced control on grass weeds can occur. Otherwise, plan on making a sequential herbicide application to control grasses and other later emerging weeds. Again, the cutoff date to apply dicamba postemergence in dicamba-tolerant soybeans is June 20 in South Dakota! Remember to be mindful when spraying dicamba: be aware of surrounding susceptible plants, use coarse droplets, and spray under favorable wind and temperature conditions.

Demco's dual auger grain cart is designed for unloading efficiency, operator visibility, and safety in the field.

This dual-auger design features both an unload auger and a floor auger for enhanced grain cleanout and consistent flow, and the 22-inch unload auger is capable of moving up to 600 bushels per minute.

Farmers can also choose between right or left-handed unload options—right-handed unload improves visibility from the tractor cab. A new design allows both vertical and horizontal movement for precise grain placement during unloading.

Another key feature is the built-in fire safety system; a 300-gallon onboard water tank with a hose reel that provides field-ready fire suppression capability.

These dual auger grain carts are available in 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, and 2200 bushel sizes.
