New Varieties Show Promise
Although Miller and other consultants are still involved in their own learning curve about the new 2010 varieties that Monsanto and Deltapine are launching, he believes this project can help producers improve their management skills. For example, he believes that when DP 555 BG/RR was launched in 2002, it took producers nearly three years to learn how to manage that vigorous cotton variety.
"This is definitely an improvement," Miller says. "When you can look at a variety over 12 to 15 acres, it makes a world of difference compared to a small six-row plot. You can learn more, and that's what producers want."
Positive Reaction
The general reaction from producers who attended the launch event in Charleston was positive.
