He notes that DP 0935 B2RF and DP 0924 B2RF did perform as well as or better than 555 last year although the 555 suffered a lot of weather damage from Hurricane Faye. This year, Dollar once again is a NPE producer for the Class of 2010 candidates.

"We had good yields last year, but these are new varieties so we don't have as much experience with them as we do with 555," Dollar explains. "But, I've accepted that we have to change over to the dual gene technology, and I think Monsanto is doing its best to help us do this. It's just that change sometimes makes people anxious.

"However, I think there will be a lot of benefits for cotton producers in the end," he adds. "We need to support Monsanto in this transition, and Monsanto and Deltapine need to support us, also."
