Monday, May 13 is the last day for sales and distribution of existing stocks of over-the-top dicamba products in 2024 for Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Minnesota.
This includes Xtendimax, Engenia or Tavium. And it requires End the entity assumed possession of the dicamba products prior to February 6, 2024.
The sales and distribution deadline for South Dakota is May 21, and for all other states and counties with registrations is May 31 for soybeans/June 30 for cotton.
All regulations are based on the farmer’s billing address, not the intended field location.
The dates were set by the EPA’s existing stocks order issued on February 14, just one week after Arizona federal court decision vacating those product registrations.

EPA stated: “The issuance of this existing stocks order will help to ensure that growers who have already purchased dicamba-tolerant seeds and thus are reliant on the availability of dicamba for the 2024 growing season.”
As for application guidelines, refer to your state guidelines.
