According to the Associated Press, Judge Chris Piazza of the Pulaski County Circuit Court dismissed a lawsuit by Monsanto which sought to overturn a decision by the state Plant Board banning the use of dicamba for a six-month period. Although several states have enacted bans or restrictions on dicamba, Arkansas has imposed the toughest legislation.

The Plant Board imposed the ban after receiving close to 1,000 complaints last year from farmers whose non-dicamba ...

EPA reapproves weaponized dicamba, betraying farmers for corporate profit

Key points:

A legacy of lies and landscape-level ruin

To understand the treachery of this re-approval, one must first grasp the scale of the deception and destruction that has unfolded since dicamba was first conditionally approved in 2016. Monsanto, followed by BASF, engineered a system of dependency: they sold genetically modified dicamba-tolerant seeds paired with their proprietary "low-volatility" dicamba herbicide ...

Dicamba “drift” destroying crops downwind from application sites of Monsanto’s toxic herbicide

https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-07-31-dicamba-drift-destroying-crops-downwind-from-application-sites-of-monsantos-toxic-herbicide.html

July 31, 2017 -

Though dicamba has been on the market for several decades, it's historically been used only as a pre-emergent, meaning it was applied to soils before crop plantings. But farmers are now applying this noxious chemical product to crops after they've been planted – and reports indicate that they're doing so illegally, as dicamba isn't approved for post-planting use.

The reason for this is that dicamba is highly volatile, meaning it easily takes flight ...

EPA moves to reregister banned pesticide dicamba despite court rulings and public outcry

https://www.naturalnews.com/2025-07-30-epa-reregister-pesticide-dicamba-court.html

July 30, 2025 -

The Trump administration’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is pushing to reregister dicamba, a highly controversial pesticide twice banned by federal courts, for use on genetically engineered soybeans and cotton.

The decision comes just weeks after Kyle Kunkler, a former lobbyist for the American Soybean Association (ASA), was installed as deputy assistant administrator for pesticides at the EPA in a move critics say exemplifies blatant ...

Tenneessee restricts use of Monsanto herbicide dicamba as damage to food crops spreads

https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-03-13-tenneessee-restricts-use-of-monsanto-herbicide-dicamba.html

March 13, 2019 -

The problem, farmers say, is that the dicamba formulations only work for crops that have been designed for it. Wind and weather conditions affect the pesticide, which cause dicamba to spread over to neighboring farms and damage other crops. Weed specialists from Missouri have stated that off-target movement from dicamba has damaged at least 203,045 acres of soybeans, along with 73 acres of watermelons, 18 acres of cantaloupes, 24 acres of certified ...

December 12, 2017 -

These incentives are being offered even as the country is facing an agricultural crisis caused by dicamba-based products which evaporated and drifted away after being sprayed on crops.

Natural News reported last year that with increasing scrutiny being leveled at Monsanto’s most famous weed killer, the glyphosate-based Roundup product, Monsanto has quietly invested over $1 billion in developing dicamba-based products. As bad as Roundup is, dicamba ...

Bill Bader sued the companies after thousands of his fruit trees were damaged by the herbicide dicamba, which drifted in from cotton fields nearby that had been planted with dicamba-resistant seeds made by BASF and Bayer.

Bader’s peach farm is said to be one of the biggest in Missouri, producing 5 million pounds of peaches each year. Lab tests that were carried out by state agricultural officials confirmed symptoms of dicamba, and the farmer ...

If the EPA allows continued use of dicamba pesticide, it could push monarch butterflies to extinction

DowDupont and BASF SE have also created dicamba-resistant crops. Who else would be behind the extinction of monarch butterflies besides the biotech industry?What is dicamba and why is it such a massive threat?

As Modern Farmer explains, dicamba is an herbicide intended to target broad-leaf weeds, rather ...

EPA plans to SPREAD CANCER by reapproving deadly DICAMBA HERBICIDE that the Fed Courts already banned twice

https://www.naturalnews.com/2025-08-03-epa-reapproves-deadly-twice-banned-dicamba-herbicide.html

August 03, 2025 -

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced plans to reapprove dicamba, a controversial herbicide previously banned twice by federal courts. Dicamba, widely used on genetically modified soybean and cotton crops, is notorious for its tendency to drift through the air, causing widespread damage and posing serious health risks. Despite growing scientific evidence linking agricultural chemicals to a host of health problems, the EPA is moving forward ...

Bayer wants EPA to issue “updated label” on Dicamba – claiming their growers now spread the toxic herbicide in the “right way”

https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-09-26-bayer-wants-epa-to-issue-updated-label-on-dicamba-toxic-herbicide.html

September 26, 2018 -

After complaints rolled in the past few years about the high drift and volatility of the controversial weed killer concoction Dicamba, Bayer's shills and charlatans figure they'll put some new words in the EPA officials' mouths (and probably some money in their pockets) to change the label on their 60-million-pound-a-year poison they pour on American "tolerant" soy and cotton. Their goal is to preempt the regulatory decision by pretending that HOW the toxins are ...

Arkansas court rules with Monsanto, grants farmers right to spray toxic Dicamba herbicide that causes horrific crop damage to nearby farms

April 05, 2018 -

After dicamba is sprayed, its toxic chemistry carries through the wind and causes damage to nearby crops that aren’t genetically modified to withstand the chemical. It was originally intended to be sprayed as a pre-emergent, before the crops are planted, but farmers began to use it throughout the entire growing season. Not only is dicamba destroying the biodiversity of plant life in the ecosystem, but it is also taking out natural crops, forcing more farmers ...

September 21, 2017 - dicamba, of which a telltale sign is the curling downward of infected plants' leaves, like a dying black umbrella.

Dicamba was first approved for agricultural use in March 2017 – it was supposed to guarantee weed control in cottonwoods and soybeans to get rid of unwanted plants such as pigweed. Right after its approval, farmers all over the country planted over 20 million acres of dicamba-resistant soybeans.

However, instead of killing ...
