EPA Takes Step Toward Dicamba Approval -- Market Talk

1823 ET - The EPA is moving closer to approving the popular pesticide dicamba for farmer use in 2026. The agency opened a 30-day comment period for the proposed approval of three Dicamba-based products, including ones made by crop chemical giants Bayer and Syngenta. Dicamba is widely used among cotton and soybean farmers in the southeast who battle tough, glyphosate resistant weeds. A federal court in Arizona in 2024 vacated the EPA's registration of the chemical. The court said that the EPA's restrictions on the herbicides were not enough to prevent them from drifting to neighboring farmers' fields and damaging crops that lack genetically engineered resistance to the chemical. As a result, farmers weren't able to apply the pesticide this year. (patrick.thomas@wsj.com)
