Abstract
In recent years, off-target herbicide drift has been increasingly reported to lead to damage to nontarget vegetation in the U.S. These reports have coincided with the widespread adoption of genetically modified crops with new herbicide-tolerance traits. Planting crops with these traits may indirectly lead to increased drift both by increasing the use of the corresponding herbicides and by facilitating their use as postemergence herbicides later in the season. While extensive efforts have aimed to reduce herbicide drift, critical uncertainties remain regarding the physiochemical phenomena that drive the entry of herbicides into the atmosphere as well as the atmospheric processes that may influence short- and long-range transport. Resolving these uncertainties will support the development of effective approaches to reduce herbicide drift.
