“We planted FM 1944GLB2 and had great success with it. It yielded excellent. The GlyTol LibertyLink traits were wonderful tools to have. They were a good team together, and we picked right at 1,400 pounds. It was good cotton. It graded well and yielded well, and we will be planting it again.” Kyle Williford Windsor, North Carolina “In 2011 in my CAP trial, I was fortunate enough to plant a variety that is a GlyTol LibertyLink variety that you can spray glyphosate or Liberty herbicide over the top all year long. That’s a great benefit to the farmer, because you have more than one mode of action to go after the pigweed. The cotton yielded very well, and it’s just great to have a new variety coming that you’ll have more than one mode of action to go after a problem.” Justin Gathright Monette, Arkansas “In Arkansas, we’ve had a weed resistance problem. The old programs just weren’t working. We’ve used the LibertyLink system with our cotton and soybean acres. We were very pleased with Stoneville cotton and we will continue to use the LibertyLink program.” Stewart Weaver Edmondson, Arkansas “ST 5288B2F has yielded really well for us. It outyielded the competitor varieties by as much as 150-200 pounds. Under dry conditions, it yielded anywhere from 900-1,000 pounds, and in some cases up to 1,100 pounds. On our irrigated cotton, ST 5288B2F has yielded in the 1,500-1,600 pound range. So it’s done a good job for us on yield.” Jimmy White St. Joseph, Louisiana VARIETIES 2014 EAST Bayer CropScience LP, 2 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709.

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.
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 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.
