NCKS | "Here" E3 beans are essentially LL beans as well. 24d just drops leaves for a day before they get back to moving. IMO XF is still more valuable just to protect yourself from drift. 7 years ago there was very little dicamba used after may 15th here for obvious reasons, well status rates went from 3oz to 7 oz, lots of D used in milo and stubble burndowns and late crop burndowns that it never was before. Take Engenia out of equation and D load is still higher than baseline.
We treated a majority of our soybeans as LL this year. Most other XF growers in immediate area did as well. Most E3 beans without Engenia sprayed for 3,4,5+ miles still cupped. Either bad at cleaning out sprayer (Id say over 50% because you can see different cupping to the line on neighbors) or D load from far away or other sources.
We're going to play with some E3 varieties this year because yield trumps all, but equal yield, win goes to XF. | |
