TwinLink technology offers two-gene Bt protection against worm pests plus LibertyLink technology that gives full tolerance to Liberty herbicide. TwinLink is 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 is 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 help 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.

California/Arizona Varieties

“ Looking at the pipeline of newer commercial varieties, ST 4946GLB2 is a bright shining star. It has the total package with great yields, good fiber quality, easy manageability and the option to spray Liberty herbicide or glyphosate. It is a great variety for any grower in my area.”

Brian Rhodes Casa Grande, Arizona

“ FM 2011GT has yielded very high 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.”

“ 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 SeidenbergerGarden City, Texas

“ One of the great benefits of FM 2989GLB2 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 would plant more of the FM 2989GLB2 due to its good Verticillium tolerance.”

Vance SmithBig Spring, Texas

“ FM 1830GLT had great yields for our area, over 2,000 pounds. The quality was excellent in a short year — 55-cent cotton. Another outstanding benefit is that it was excellent on Verticillium wilt, which is starting to become a major problem in our area.”
