Impact of an Ultra-Low Atrazine CE-LOC
Regardless of how it would be implemented, a 3.4 ppb CE-LOC for atrazine is not supported by science and would have extreme negative impacts on sustainable farming practices.
If implemented on a watershed basis, a 3.4 ppb CE-LOC would impact 26 percent of U.S. corn acres:
-
- 56 percent of Illinois corn acres
- 44 percent of Iowa corn acres
- 62 percent of Missouri corn acres
- 32 percent of Kansas corn acres
- 23 percent of Nebraska corn acres.
