The American Soybean Association and the National Association of Wheat Growers welcomed Ruveon's decision to withdraw its petitions seeking antidumping and countervailing duties on glyphosate imports from China, saying the move will help preserve access to affordable crop protection products for U.S. farmers.

Ruveon announced it would withdraw its petition with the U.S. International Trade Commission after receiving feedback from stakeholders across the U.S. agriculture industry. The company had filed the petitions on June 30, 2026, with the U.S. International Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Commerce alongside Monsanto Co.

The petitions sought antidumping and countervailing duties on glyphosate products imported from China.

ASA said it had provided extensive feedback to Ruveon after the petitions were filed and again during its recent board of directors meeting. The organization said the company's decision reflects its willingness to respond to concerns from soybean farmers and other agricultural groups about maintaining access to affordable crop protection tools.

The association said continued availability of cost-effective weed management products is important to helping soybean producers remain productive, profitable and competitive. ASA also said it will continue working with industry stakeholders and policymakers to ensure farmers have access to the crop protection products they need.

The National Association of Wheat Growers also praised the decision, noting that many wheat producers continue to face difficult economic conditions driven by inflation, geopolitical disruptions and rising production costs.

NAWG said withdrawing the petitions will help avoid additional input costs at a time when wheat farmers have experienced several consecutive years of financial losses. The organization also called on Ruveon to maintain fair and transparent pricing practices and avoid significant price increases in the future.

Ruveon LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bayer, produces about 60% of the glyphosate sold in the United States
