Hopefully this is the final nail in xtend's coffin.

I guess you'll have to explain to me why 2-4 d is better than dicamba, now we won't have any beans safe from drift. @ least before I could plant extends to protect myself, now if I do that 2-4d can get me.
2-4d can also volatize and move but my own personal experience says dicamba is much worse than 24d. We've sprayed field edges and fence lines with 24d for years, often driving right over RR beans and spraying right over the top of them to hit the grass in a fence line. 24d only got them when the applicator sloughed off and let the wand down too low. Took a direct hit from 24d to effect them.
untraited beans are also more susceptible to dicamba than 24d. Now other things like grapes, tomatoes....ain't no way I'd risk any group 4 around them. That's what I like about E3, more flexibility with liberty in the mix. I sure don't think this is going to put the nail in xtends coffin. That cat is already out of the bag.
