Can I order these products?
-
Customers may now place orders for these new YieldGard VT based products.
When will the YieldGard VT products be available for planting?
-
These new products are currently in production in South America with
expected placement in the US about Mid-April 2007.
What will the YieldGard VT Triple cost?
-
YieldGard VT Triple products will qualify
(just like other triples) for the $15 per unit Home Run Hybrid Discount as well
as other appropriate discounts. Note: List Prices are still
to be announced.
Will the 6197VT qualify for any special programs?
-
The 6197VT will not be one of the 70th Anniversary Celebration

What is the supply of these new products? Can I order as much as I want?
-
Order all you want of these new products. Allocations may be
necessary since the total supply of VT and VT3 products are less than 10% of
the current Triple supply.
How is the VT Triple different from the YG Plus/RR2 corn products?
-
The VT stands for VecTran technology which combines Roundup Ready Corn 2
and YieldGard Rootworm into a single DNA insertion process. This more
efficient process results in improved consistency in trait expression.
