“FM 1944GLB2 is really exciting because it improves on FM 1740B2F. We’ve been growing good yields with FM 1740B2F and had really good results. FM 1944GLB2 is going to add a little bit better quality potential, along with GlyTol LibertyLink traits for two modes of action in our herbicides. With resistant pigweeds coming, that’s going to be really important.” Justin Foster Hart, Texas “FM 2011GT yielded very high this past year on farms with good irrigation. We didn’t have much rain at all, but we had some farms with water where we were able to push the yields as high as 2,200 pounds. Other farms where we were sharing water with corn, we had yields as high as 1,100 to 1,200 pounds with very limited water. It yielded as well as any other variety that would fit that area.” Dusty Hill Hill Crop Services Memphis, Texas “FM 2484B2F is going to be a really good fit in these drip-irrigated fields to push the max in yields and quality. In 2011, I had a drip-irrigated field of FM 2484B2F that made 2,356 pounds. The quality is there too. On 324 bales of FM 2484B2F, the average loan value was 57.32 cents.” Eric Seidenberger Garden City, Texas “We planted the new FM 2989GLB2 this year as a trial variety since it’s the first year on the commercial market. One of the great benefits is the multiple herbicide technology where you can hit any resistant weeds or hard-to-kill weeds, such as morningglories, with Liberty instead of glyphosate. The variety grew well all year. We’ll probably plant more of the FM 2989GLB2 next year due to its good Verticillium tolerance. FM 2989GLB2 is very promising.” Vance Smith Big Spring, Texas “We planted ST 5458B2RF because it has nematode tolerance. We were having some problems with nematodes and wilt was showing up at the end of the season. Since we started planting ST 5458B2RF, we have not had nematode problems.” Johnny Louder Stanton, Texas SOUTHWEST Bayer CropScience LP, 2 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709.

TwinLink technology offers two-gene Bt protection against worm pests plus LibertyLink technology that gives full tolerance to Liberty herbicide. TwinLink will be stacked with GlyTol to provide double-herbicide tolerance to Liberty and glyphosate for effective crop and resistance management. Cotton stacked with TwinLink, GlyTol and LibertyLink will be a powerful weed and insect management tool for growers.

As the first-ever cotton with full tolerance to both glyphosate and Liberty herbicides, GlyTol LibertyLink stacked technology gives growers a competitive edge to choose the herbicide and herbicide-tolerant trait system that will enable them to optimize weed management on their farms. Also available with Bollgard II.

GlyTol trait technology provides tolerance to over-the-top applications of glyphosate, empowering growers with the flexibility to select any brand of glyphosate herbicide labeled for use on cotton.

Bayer Trait TechnologyBayer CropScience has leading integrated breeding, research and development programs that use today’s latest technologies to create and introduce new traits and varieties that continue to meet grower needs.
