"Based on the data we collected from FACT and the NPEs, DP 0935 B2RF and DP 0949 B2RF had yield performance that was right there with, or, in some cases exceeded, DP 555 BG/RR," Albers says.

With the new Class of '10 Bollgard II varieties, Monsanto's cotton germplasm manager says the company expects to produce not only higher yields than DP 555 BG/RR but also higher quality, which, with better staple, could mean two to three cents more in the loan value.

"Once you get past a good color grade, and the environment influences that more times than not, then staple is the biggest driver in the world market right now," Albers notes.
