breeding better soybeans is driven by their goal to provide farmers with the most
benefit out of each and every bag of Asgrow seed.

protection. This technology greatly reduces – and often eliminates – the need to
spray for the most damaging worm species.

For more than 70 years, the DEKALB flying corncob has represented outstanding yield
potential that generates higher returns for farmers who grow DEKALB corn. Today,
offerings include corn hybrids, soybean varieties, alfalfa products and sunflower
hybrids.

enabled the company to develop and deliver improved cotton varieties, sold under the Deltapine label, for its customers
for more than 90 years. Delta and Pine Land also offers a broad range of Deltapine soybean varieties that are developed to
perform in cotton-producing states.
Roundup® Agricultural Herbicide
For more than 30 years, Roundup® agricultural herbicides have delivered
the weed control growers worldwide have come to expect. Trusted, consistent and
reliable weed control with proven crop safety.
Roundup Ready®
The Roundup Ready® seeds contain in-plant tolerance to Roundup®
agricultural herbicides, allowing growers to spray Roundup agricultural herbicides
to kill the weeds without harming the crop. Roundup Ready varieties provide unsurpassed

products are stacked with other traits such as Bollgard and YieldGard to add insect
protection.

soybeans can reduce or virtually eliminate trans-fatty acids (trans fats) in processed
soybean oil.
