Integra's commitment to provide the latest trait technology continues with new Genuity® Roundup Ready 2 Yield® Soybeans.
According to Monsanto, over four years of trials, Genuity® Roundup Ready 2 Yield® Soybeans consistently delivered 7-11%
higher yields* than Roundup Ready® Soybeans. And now Integra is bringing that yield potential to you.
Genuity® is the most advanced and best technology Monsanto will be offering in corn, soybeans, cotton and specialty
crops. One of the first products being introduced under the Genuity® brand umbrella is Genuity® VT Triple PRO™.
Genuity® VT Triple PRO™ is new technology that offers the first dual mode-of-action solution for above ground pests,
specifically corn earworm and armyworm, while also controlling corn rootworm below ground. This technology is the
first to have a 20% refuge in the Southern market.
Genuity® VT Double PRO™ includes broad-spectrum insect control against corn earworm, European and southwestern corn
borers, sugarcane borer, southern cornstalk borer and fall armyworm. The dual mode-of-action of Genuity® VT
Double PRO™ allows for the lowest corn borer refuge requirement available—5% in corn-growing areas and 20%
in cotton-growing areas.
Introducing the First Single-Bag Refuge Solution. Genuity® SmartStax® RIB Complete™ Corn has 5% refuge corn
seed in every bag. That means no calculating or planting a separate structured refuge ever again and no more separate, structured refuge. Genuity
SmartStax RIB Complete provides simple and convenient fence row to fence row planting, thanks to single-bag solution. The 95/5 blend of B.t. and
non-B.t. seed provides the lowest refuge in the Corn Growing Region. Broadest spectrum of above and below ground insect protection on insect-protected
acres, including two modes of action against corn rootworm.
Roundup Ready® Corn 2 contains enhanced in-plant tolerance to Roundup® agricultural
herbicides, enabling growers to use over-the-top applications of Roundup® brand herbicides to control both grasses
and broadleaf weeds. Growers are provided with excellent crop safety and full yield potential, with applications
made from planting through 48 inches of corn height. Drop nozzles must be used between 30 inches to 48 inches of
corn height.
Yield-Gard® Corn Borer hybrids contain an insecticidal protein from Bacillus thuringiensis (B.t.) that
protects corn plants from specific lepidopteran insect pests. The YieldGard® Corn Borer trait delivers,
whole plant, full season protection against European corn borer, southwestern corn borer, sugarcane borer
and southern cornstalk borer resulting in maximum yield potential. YieldGard® Corn Borer hybrids also provide
effective suppression of corn earworm, fall armyworm and stalk borer. By providing whole plant protection
against corn borers, the genetic yield potential of YieldGard® Corn Borer hybrids is preserved.
YieldGard® Plus technology combines YieldGard® Corn Borer and YieldGard® Rootworm Technology into a single plant.
YieldGard® Plus corn hybrids control European and southwestern corn borers, sugarcane borer, southern corn stalk
borers, western corn rootworm, northern corn rootworm, and Mexican corn rootworm. YieldGard® Plus corn hybrids
also provide suppression of corn earworm, fall armyworm and stalk borer. By providing full season protection
against the above insect pests, the genetic yield potential of YieldGard® Plus corn hybrids is preserved.
YieldGard VT Rootworm/RR2® insect-protected corn provides improved consistency and better control, compared
to current rootworm-protected products of western corn rootworm, northern corn rootworm, and Mexican corn
rootworm throughout the larval feeding period. A huge benefit of YieldGard VT® products is that you get
stacked-trait hybrids with a highly active and more consistent promoter of the rootworm gene. The promoter
is a biotech switch that turns on the gene to produce the insect-contorl protein and more ef fectively
distribute it throughout the root system.
YieldGard VT Triple
® hybrids are created using a process called VecTranTM technology, which stands for
Vector-stack Transformation. By combining two traits using a single DNA - insertion process, it is a better
way to produce stacked straits:
- More ef ficient and more consistent
- Less time-consuming
- Enhanced trait performance.
YieldGard VT Triple
® offers protection not only for the roots, but for the stalk and includes weed control
as well. This allows for more available moisture and nutrients, more uptake and translocation, less lodging
and ear drop and broad-spectrum weed control in the Roundup Ready
® 2 Technology System.
Herculex® I Insect Protection delivers superior in-plant protection against more aboveground destructive
pests than any other trait, and is the only trait that protects against western bean cutworm and black
cutworm. Herculex® I provides powerful protection against: First- and second-generation European corn
borer, western bean cutworm, black cutworm, all generations of southwestern corn borer, fall armyworm,
southern corn stalk borer, lesser cornstalk borer and sugarcane borer. Plus, it of fers suppression
of corn earworm, so your corn is shielded from the ef fects of multiple yield-robbing pests.
Agrisure Viptera™ 3111 trait stack combines the Agrisure® 3000GT trait stack and the Agrisure Viptera trait to provide corn
growers the broadest spectrum of above- and below-ground insect control. This new stack delivers unsurpassed multi-pest control of 14 yield - and
quality-robbing insects. The Agrisure Viptera™ 3111 trait provides in-season control of the multi-pest complex, including corn earworm, black
cutworm, fall armyworm, Western bean cutworm, common stalk borer, sugarcane borer and dingy cutworm as a convenient way to prevent and protect against
insect damage throughout the growing season.
