e0“In soybean, glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D, dicamba, halosulfuron, mesotrione, tembotrione, and propanil were applied at low rates to simulate drift events, in combination with the insecticide seed treatments thiamethoxam and clothianidin at labeled rates”
e2“Injury reduction was seen at 1 site-year for glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D, dicamba, mesotrione, and tembotrione, and at 2 of 3 site-years for halosulfuron”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Insecticide seed treatments reduced herbicide drift injury in soybean at 1 site-year for six herbicides.
- Intervention effect Halosulfuron safening increased crop height and yield in soybean at 1 site-year.
- Intervention effect In grain sorghum, reducing injury via seed treatments was generally more successful than in soybean.
- Intervention effect Quizalofop plus clothianidin reduced sorghum injury by upward of 40% at Marianna in 2016, and all three herbicides showed injury reduction in sorghum at one or more site-years.
- Intervention effect Insecticide use increased crop height and grain yield in grain sorghum at 2 site-years compared with no insecticide use.
- Recommendation Growers who use insecticide seed treatments annually may expect a safening effect from drift of most herbicides in soybean and grain sorghum.
