1 Corn Corn brand corn genetics are sourced globally and My Channel Seedsman s knowledge of our land is impressive and the service he provided me added a great value to the product. - Jerry Brenner, Burlington, CO tested locally, allowing your Seedsman to bring you choices with superior performance potential. This year you ll see a wide range of trait choices to protect the yield potential those genetics deliver: Genuity SmartStax RIB Complete corn blend, Genuity VT Double PRO RIB Complete corn blend, Genuity VT Triple PRO corn, YieldGard VT Triple corn and Roundup Ready Corn.

The Herculex XTRA label claims suppression only and Monsanto and Dow AgroSciences data suggests suppression only. In the Corn-Growing Area, Genuity SmartStax RIB Complete and Genuity VT Double PRO RIB Complete have no requirements for a separate structured refuge. However, in the Cotton-Growing Area, this product requires the planting of an additional 0% structured refuge. Corn Seed Treatments Seed Treatment comparison performed in soil innoculated with Fusarium. Channel YieldGard VT Triple Proven root and stalk insect protection against European and Southwestern corn borer, sugarcane borer, southern cornstalk borer and western, northern and Mexican corn rootworm, plus the leading broad-spectrum weed control of the Roundup Ready Technology Channel Roundup Ready Corn Enables broad-spectrum weed control, outstanding crop safety and the flexibility to fit the way you farm Start Strong.

Corn-Growing Area Cotton-Growing Area Common Refuge: A common refuge is a single field that serves as a refuge for both above-ground pests (e.g. corn borer) and below ground pests (e.g. corn rootworm) at the same time. The refuge can be within the B.t. field or immediately adjacent to it. Separate Refuge: A separate refuge is an option that requires two fields one field which is adjacent to or within your B.t. field that serves as a refuge for below-ground pests (e.g. corn rootworm) and a separate field (up to / mile away) that serves as a refuge for above-ground pests (e.g. corn borer). Several options/configurations not shown. Refuge configuration options represent percent requirement for the corn-growing areas. The percentage may be different for Cotton-Growing Areas. This chart provided as a summary only. Growers must read the IRM Grower Guide prior to planting. An Insect Resistance Management (IRM) plan is mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) when purchasing and planting all seed with insect-protected traits. Failure to comply may result in loss of access to the technology. Compliance means correctly meeting all refuge requirements, which vary by product and region.
