"While Rick Dunkle, APHIS Deputy Administrator of Plant Protection and Quarantine, called the finding "concerning" he noted the timing is such that it is likely to have a minimal impact. Most commercial soybeans in the area have been harvested already."

"Costs for treatment in the US are estimated at $25/acre on average. That would represent a 15% increase in costs for those producers who are affected."

"So far three active ingredients have been approved for Section 18 emergency exemptions for use in treating Asian Soybean Rust: propiconazole (Tilt, Propimax, Bumper), myclobutanil (Laredo), and tebuconazole (Folicur)."
