Brief Project Summary:

Enlist technology, also known as 2,4-D Tolerant (ET) soybeans, is very new technology and will likely be planted in Nebraska (and elsewhere) on a very limited acres in 2018 (contract production only). During these early adoption stages, the majority of soybeans will be the non-ET varieties, therefore there is an obvious concern that the use of 2,4-D based herbicides will result in unintended drift. The herbicide 2,4-D is not as volatile as dicamba, but it has also tendency not only to drift with any air movements (even slight wind), it can also move off the sprayed site during air temperature inversions. Therefore, there is a need to establish baseline data in Nebraska on potential injury...

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
