3 YieldGard VT Triple : the stacked hybrids with enhanced trait performance. Yield Protection for Full Genetic Potential Improved Consistency Better Insect Protection Better Root Protection Roundup Ready 2 Technology System Broad-Spectrum Weed Control Proven Crop Safety YieldGard VT Triple has all of the most advanced insect and weed-control traits stacked into one seed: Stalk protection Root protection Weed control of the Roundup Ready 2 Technology System Find out more about YieldGard VT Triple at

4 Advantage 1 Yield Protection for Full Genetic Potential YieldGard VT Triple maximizes yield protection to maximize your corn s genetic potential. When it comes to root protection, stalk protection and weed control, nothing stacks up to maximize your corn s full genetic potential like YieldGard VT Triple: More available moisture and nutrients More uptake and translocation of moisture and nutrients Less lodging Less ear drop Broad-spectrum weed control in the Roundup Ready 2 Technology System. Advantage 2 Improved Consistency VecTran technology is a more precise gene-insertion process. YieldGard VT hybrids are created using a process called VecTran technology, which stands for Vector-stack Transformation. By combining two traits using a single DNA-insertion process, it is a better way to produce stacked traits: More efficient More consistent Less time-consuming Enhanced trait performance And by improving breeding efficiency processes, elite germplasm with better, higher-yielding traits can be available on your farm operation six to 12 months faster.

5 Advantage 3 Better Insect Protection YieldGard VT Triple contains a better promoter. A huge benefit of YieldGard VT Triple is that it contains a highly active and more consistent promoter of the rootworm gene. The promoter is a biotech switch that turns on the gene to produce the insect-control protein and more effectively distribute it throughout the root system. This improved protein expression gives you: A more consistent level of insecticidal protein A better barrier to control corn rootworm larvae First-Generation Rootworm YieldGard VT Triple* YieldGard VT Triple delivers a more consistent level of insecticidal protein. *Tissue Print Western of YieldGard Rootworm and YieldGard VT Triple specifically marking the rootworm protein with green dye. YieldGard VT Triple protects against: Western Corn Rootworms Northern Corn Rootworms Mexican Corn Rootworms European Corn Borers Southwestern Corn Borers Black Cutworms Sugarcane Borers Fall Armyworms Stalk Borers Wireworms White Grubs Seedcorn Maggots Early Flea Beetles Corn Earworms Consistency Scores YieldGard VT Triple vs. YieldGard Plus/YieldGard Rootworm vs. Untreated 100 YieldGard VT Triple provides a stronger barrier against rootworm and enables roots to outperform the industry-standard rootworm-protected roots. % Consistency* YieldGard VT Triple/ YieldGard VT Rootworm/RR2 YieldGard Plus/ YieldGard Rootworm Untreated Source: 58 field-trial comparisons, Monsanto trials, *Percentage of roots rated below 0.25NIS.

6 Advantage 4 Better Root Protection Over 30,000 root digs prove better rootworm control vs. industry-standard YieldGard Plus. Over 30,000 root digs were conducted comparing YieldGard VT roots against the industry-standard YieldGard products. After all the results were tabulated, YieldGard VT hybrids consistently scored better in root protection than firstgeneration YieldGard hybrids. YieldGard VT Triple roots reach full root mass, so they go deeper to get even more moisture and nutrients from the subsoil. Advantage 5 Broad-Spectrum Weed Control Start Clean, Stay Clean. YieldGard VT Triple contains Roundup Ready 2 Technology, so you have all the benefits of the Roundup Ready 2 System at your disposal. All you need is a Roundup Ready Rate of a residual herbicide for your early-season weed control. That s enough residual herbicide to widen your post application window without sacrificing efficacy on your toughest early-season weeds. There is no better way to control your weeds and your costs. The Roundup Ready Rate gives you effective early-season weed control in YieldGard VT Triple and helps you reduce the risk of developing weed resistance to glyphosate. Pints Pints Quarts Quarts Quarts Quarts Quarts Quarts Reduced rates of acetanilides affect the length of control, not the spectrum of control.

7 Advantage 6 Proven Crop Safety Get peace of mind and 5.6 bu./a more. The Roundup Ready 2 Technology System delivers proven crop safety and peace of mind. In six years of field trials, lowering your risk of crop injury delivers up to 5.6 bushels an acre more than conventional corn herbicide programs. The Roundup Ready program, using the same products for all programs, outyielded other programs in 71 percent of trials. Because Roundup Ready 2 Technology was specifically designed for Roundup agricultural herbicides, you can get the following s compared with other nonglyphosate postemergence herbicide programs using the same hybrid: Superior crop safety Less potential yield loss from crop injury Up to 5.6 bushels per acre more yield potential Up to $18/A more profit potential Better yield in 71 percent of trials Regardless of the season, Roundup Ready 2 Technology outyielded conventional herbicide programs.

8 University Scientists Encourage Good Stewardship YieldGard Technologies are planted on more than 20 million acres, making it the number one choice for rootworm control. The following university entomologist encourage that growers follow all Insect Resistance Management requirements: Dr. Bob Wright, Extension Entomologist, University of Nebraska Dr. Marlin Rice, Extension Entomologist, Iowa State University Dr. Ken Ostlie, Extension Entomologist, University of Minnesota Dr. Christian Krupke, Extension Entomologist, Purdue University For more information, please consult the YieldGard Insect Resistance Management Guide, call or visit Roundup Ready Corn 2 Technology is projected to be planted on more than 50 million acres this season.* The following university weed specialists recommend that growers follow good stewardship practices to effectively manage this technology: Dr. James Martin, Agronomist, University of Kentucky Dr. Mike Owen, Extension Weed Specialist, Iowa State University Dr. Robert Wilson, Extension Weed Specialist, University of Nebraska Dr. Bryan Young, Weed Specialist, Southern Illinois University Dr. Bill Johnson, Extension Weed Specialist, Purdue University Dr. Jeffery Gunsolus, Agronomist, University of Minnesota For more information on weed management, call ROUNDUP or log on to for tips from weed scientists across the Corn Belt. *Projected 2007 data IMPORTANT: The following information is current as of April 2007: YieldGard Plus, YieldGard Rootworm with Roundup Ready Corn 2 and YieldGard Corn Borer with Roundup Ready Corn 2 are grandfathered for import and use in processed feed in the European Union (EU). YieldGard Plus with Roundup Ready Corn 2, YieldGard VT Rootworm/RR2 and YieldGard VT Triple are neither approved nor grandfathered, and there is zero tolerance for these traits in processed feed imported in the EU. Growers of all products bearing the Market Choices mark must talk to their grain handler to confirm the handler s buying position for grain from these products. It is a violation of national and international law to move material containing biotech traits across boundaries into nations where import is not permitted. Grain harvested from products that bear this mark is fully approved for food and feed use in the United States and Japan, but is not approved in the European Union. You must find a market for this crop that will not ship this grain or its processed products to Europe. Appropriate markets for this grain include: domestic feed use or grain handlers that specifically agree to accept this grain and handle it appropriately. For more information on your grain market options, go to the American Seed Trade Association s website at or call your seed supplier.
