Insect Resistance Management

We're committed to making sure the land remains viable for profitable crop production. The lasting effectiveness and continued availability of Bt technologies hinges on growers adopting practices that assist in preventing development of resistant pest populations. Following all Insect Resistance Management (IRM) requirements will ensure the effectiveness of Bt technology and protect your options in the future.

There is an exciting new IRM development for the 2008 season. Since WideStrike^® Insect Protection is a two-gene trait, the natural refuge has been accepted as an applicable refuge to the majority of the Cotton Belt.
