In the past week, I have been involved with 3 field situations where dicamba was inadvertently applied to peanut prior to planting.  The results were not good.  Dicamba is NOT labeled for preplant use in peanut.<\/em><\/strong>  With that said, here is all I know about how peanuts respond to soil-applied dicamba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) This is what soil-applied dicamba injury on peanut looks like.  I had to pinch hit that day for Bill “Bob Never Gave Me a Cool Nickname” Starr.  I cannot remember for sure but I I think Bill was hunting Sasquatch in Montana or Wyoming????<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Field studies that I and several others conducted with preplant applications of dicamba way back in the early 2000’s indicated the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

a) Dicamba at 0.25 lb ae\/A (i.e. Clarity @ 8 oz\/A or Engenia @ 6.4 oz\/A or Xtendimax @ 11 oz\/A) applied 7, or 15, or 30 days before planting (DBP) had no effect on yield in 7\/7 trials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

b) Dicamba at 0.25 lb ae\/A applied 0 DBP (i.e. PRE) caused significant peanut losses in 2\/7 field trials.  Peanut yield losses in those 2 trials ranged between 36%-76%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) The most important factors that influence how peanuts will respond to soil-applied dicamba are application rate, soil type, the time interval between application and planting, and irrigation\/rainfall. Based upon my experiences with dicamba on peanuts and soybeans, peanuts could be safely planted 14 days + 1″ rainfall\/irrigation (0.25 lb ae\/A) or 28 days +1″ irrigation\/rainfall (0.5 lb ae\/A) after a preplant application of dicamba.  But, I need to stress again the fact that dicamba is NOT labeled for preplant use in peanut!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
