CORN

TRAIT	INSECT PROTECTION
	Roundup Ready® Corn 2 contains in-plant tolerance to Roundup® brand herbicides, enabling growers to spray Roundup® brands over the top, from planting through the V8 stage or 30-inch corn height, with excellent crop safety and no yield reduction. Compared to popular conventional corn programs, the Roundup Ready® Corn 2 system costs less, while allowing hybrids to reach their maximum yield potential. While the U.S. regulatory agencies have given full approval to Roundup Ready® Corn 2 for commerce in the U.S. for marketing and consumption as food, food ingredients and feed for livestock, certain regulatory approvals are pending in certain export markets. For more information on these approvals, or for assistance in locating domestic grain outlets, see the American Seed Trade Association web site (www.amseed.org) or contact Monsanto directly at 800-768-6387
	The Agrisure® GT trait provides tolerance to in-crop applications of glyphosate-based herbicides. This hybrid is an excellent option for refuge acres in a structured refuge operation.
	The Agrisure Above trait stack offers the convenience of an integrated E-Z Refuge seed blend plus multiple modes of action against corn borer, as well as suppression of earfeeding insects.
	The Tricepta Rib Complete corn combines the power of three different modes of action for broad-spectrum control of above-ground feeding pests, including Western bean cutworm.
	The Agrisure Viptera® 3110 trait stack offers season-long comprehensive above-ground insect control. It is ideal for areas where corn rootworm management is not a key focus.
	VT Double PRO® is the first double-stacked corn trait that requires just 20% separate, structured refuge. Dual modes of action provide maximum protection against corn earworm and other above-ground pests, like European and Southwestern corn borers and fall armyworm.
	SmartStax® RIB Complete® Corn Blend is a mix of 95% Bt. traited, 5% refuge seed. You get all the benefits of SmartStax® technology, plus the convenience of 5% refuge seed interspersed in every bag. It has proven to have a 10 bu/A advantage over non-Bt. traited corn and a 20 bu/A advantage over non-Bt. treated corn + a soil-applied insecticide.
	The Agrisure Duracade® 5222 E-Z Refuge" trait stack is the ultimate trait stack for insect control, simplicity and choice, featuring multiple modes of action to control 16 key insects-the most in the industry-including a unique mode of action that controls corn rootworm differently. The convenience of integrated E-Z Refuge seed blend.

SOYBEAN

TRAIT	INSECT PROTECTION
	Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybeans have demonstrated a clear yield advantage: They yield an average 4.5 Bu/A advantage over original Roundup Ready soybeans. Studies show that Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans develop greater root biomass, more nodes on the main stem and larger shoot biomass than original Roundup Ready® soybean products.
	Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® Soybeans are built on the high yielding Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybean technology. Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® is the industry’s first biotech-stacked soybean trait with both dicamba and glyphosate herbicide tolerance. With tolerance to glyphosate and dicamba, farmers will have access to additional tools to help control glyphosate-resistant broadleaf weeds such as Palmer amaranth, waterhemp and marestail, along with other tough-to-control broadleaf weeds such as lambsquarters and velvetleaf. The technology offers the yield and quality potential that farmers already know and trust from their Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybeans.
	Enlist E3™ soybeans provide tolerance to new 2,4-D choline, glyphosate and glufosinate. ™Trademarks of Dow AgroSciences or DuPont, and their affiliated companies or their respective owners. Enlist E3 soybeans were jointly developed by Dow AgroSciences and M.S. Technologies, L.L.C.
