Hello, my name is David Brawner. My wife Christina and I established 21st Century Seed, Inc. in 2001. We are the owners of the Missouri division of Axis Seed for corn and soybeans. We are also a full service seed company carrying wheat, forages, and grasses. I have been in the seed business for over 30 years. Starting in 1985, I built seed territories for the corporate world in 17 states. The monumental difference between Axis Seed and international corporations is that we are paid and influenced by our customers, and 100% of our decisions are based on what works for our customers. Our customers have the advantage of access to the best genetics available, and the expertise of a local independent company to place the products in the right fields. We control the genetic selections, testing of new lines, production standards, and especially quality protocols of germinations for vigor. To us, quality is paramount and is what separates us from the industry confusion. Our staff grew up in Missouri, farmed in Missouri, and were educated and trained in Missouri soils and conditions. Concentrating on a specific area makes us your Missouri seed expert. National Brand Local Ownership Unparalleled Advantages Boonville, Missouri - Exit 106 off I-70 on the S.W. corner CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL When people ask why I buy Axis seed, I tell them that customer service is very important to me. I ve worked with several other seed companies and Axis is by far the best. On farm yield trials, they were in the top of their class. They make the farmer feel important, I m not just another account. It makes you want to do business with someone who treats you with respect. Tom Bonderer - Winston, MO

LEGALS / 14 Before opening a bag of seed, be sure to read, understand and accept the stewardship requirements, including applicable refuge requirements for insect resistance management, for the biotechnology traits expressed in the seed as set forth in the technology agreement that you sign. By opening and using a bag of seed, you are reaffirming your obligation to comply with the most recent stewardship requirements. As of this printing no dicamba herbicide product has been approved for commercial in-crop use with Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybeans. DO NOT APPLY DICAMBA HERBICIDE IN-CROP TO Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans in 2016 unless you use a dicamba herbicide product that is specifically labeled for that use in the location where you intend to make the application. While no in-crop use of dicamba is currently approved, some dicamba products may be labeled for weed control prior to planting a crop and subject to minimum plant back restrictions. IT IS A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL AND STATE LAW TO MAKE AN IN-CROP APPLICATION OF ANY DICAMBA HERBICIDE PRODUCT ON Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans, OR ANY OTHER PESTICIDE APPLICATION, UNLESS THE PRODUCT LABELING SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZES THE USE. Contact the U.S. EPA and your state pesticide regulatory agency with any questions about the approval status of dicamba herbicide products for in-crop use with Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans and follow all pesticide product labeling. Monsanto Company is a member of Excellence Through Stewardship (ETS). Monsanto products are commercialized in accordance with ETS Product Launch Stewardship Guidance, and in compliance with Monsanto s Policy for Commercialization of Biotechnology-Derived Plant Products in Commodity Crops. This product has been approved for import into key export markets with functioning regulatory systems. Any crop or material produced from this product can only be exported to, or used, processed or sold in countries where all necessary regulatory approvals have been granted. It is a violation of national and international law to move material containing biotech traits across boundaries into nations where import is not permitted.

Check with your Monsanto representative for the registration status in your state. IMPORTANT IRM INFORMATION: Genuity RIB Complete corn blend products do not require the planting of a structured refuge except in the Cotton- Growing Area where corn earworm is a significant pest. Always read and follow IRM requirements. ALWAYS READ AND FOLLOW PESTICIDE LABEL DIRECTIONS. Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans contains genes that confer tolerance to glyphosate and dicamba. Glyphosate herbicides will kill crops that are not tolerant to glyphosate. Dicamba will kill crops that are not tolerant to dicamba.

Respect the Rotation is an initiative to elevate the importance and grower adoption of herbicide diversity to prevent or manage weed resistance. Glyphosate weed resistance is a dominating threat throughout the United States that affects land values, rental agreements, conservation tillage and can greatly reduce yields. The use of Integrated Weed Management practices, such as use of residuals, preemergence herbicides and rotation of crops, traits and herbicides, is critical as no one method is likely to be completely successful. LIBERTYLINK PATENT STATEMENT: Seeds containing the LibertyLink trait are protected under multiple U.S. patents and may be planted only to produce one (1) commercial crop, and only after signing a Bayer Grower Technology Agreement. It is illegal to save or catch seeds containing the LibertyLink trait for use as planting seed or for transfer to others for use as planting seed. 573.228.7333 www.21stcenturyseed.net
