Variety Overview
The Yield You Need; The Quality You Want
You need varieties that reliably deliver high yield potential and premium quality in a trait package with pest management tools tailored to efficiently control your toughest weeds and insects.
Choose Stoneville® Varieties…
- For High Yield Potential
- Stoneville varieties are valuable players in Official Variety Trials conducted by land-grant university researchers across the Cotton Belt, routinely topping yield charts and profitability studies.
- For Improved Profit
- Growers who plant Stoneville increase their opportunity for profit through higher yield potential and improved quality.
- For Proven Pest Control Traits
- With Stoneville® varieties you choose the traits that fit your fields for proven weed and lepidopteran control. Because you’re in this for the long haul, the traits also provide multiple sites of action for resistance management.
The Stoneville lineup includes these BASF proprietary traits: GlyTol® glyphosate-tolerant technology (GT), GlyTol LibertyLink® technology (GL) and GlyTol LibertyLink TwinLink® technology (GLT).
GlyTol (GT) gives you a wide application window for over-the-top application of all brands of glyphosate herbicide.
GlyTol LibertyLink (GL) provides you with the in-season option to rotate Liberty® herbicides with glyphosate. The LibertyLink trait offers maximum crop safety and proven control of your most challenging weeds, including glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth.
GlyTol LibertyLink TwinLink (GLT) adds lepidopteran control to the weed management traits, giving you season-long, two-gene Bt protection against worm pests plus full tolerance to Liberty herbicide and glyphosate.
