“We have had expressions of interest for much more area than that,” Mr Dawson said. “While the gene trait is registered and has overseas approval and full registration with Australian trading partners, the APVMA want to make sure there is no impact from over the top spraying of dicamba, which could affect nearby summer crops such as soybeans, mung beans, grapes and citrus along with other cotton crops that don’t carry the new gene technology. Currently it is ok to spray fallow country with dicamba but not over the top of crops.”
