BASF's ERAGON Supported for Use as Harvest Aid For Soybeans and Dry Beans

BASF recently announced it supports the use of ERAGON herbicide as a pre-harvest application on dry beans and soybeans for the 2014 growing season.

Maximum residue limits (MRLs) for ERAGON as a harvest aid and desiccant have been established for the European Union for soybeans and dry beans, the company says in a press release. MRLs were already established in Japan, Codex countries and the United States for soybeans and dry beans. BASF supports the use of ERAGON on these crops for the 2014 pre-harvest application season.

Growers can now apply ERAGON herbicide for pre-harvest use on dry beans and soybeans. Farmers concerned about potential MRL risks for their export crops should consult with their processing and exporting companies before finalizing harvest aid and desiccant decisions to ensure marketability of the crop.
