Abstract
We derive novel low--energy theorems for single pion production off nucleons through the isovector axial current. We find that the -dependence of the multipole at threshold is given by the nucleon scalar form factor, namely . The relation to PCAC results for soft pions including electroweak form factors is also clarified.
