XtendFlex® cotton
XtendFlex® cotton is the first cotton trait developed to be tolerant to over-the-top applications of registered glyphosate, dicamba and glufosinate-ammonium herbicides, providing flexbility to manage a wider-spectrum of difficult-to-control and resistant weeds in-crop. Bollgard® 3 XtendFlex cotton provides an enhanced combination of defence against Helicoverpa species and tolerance to over-the-top herbicide application.
Features & Benefits
Providing the flexibility to target a wider-spectrum of difficult-to-control weeds
Additional herbicide modes-of-action applied over-the-top of XtendFlex cotton, compared to Roundup Ready Flex, provides growers with more flexibility to target a wider spectrum of resistant or difficult-to-control weeds in their XtendFlex cotton crops.
Sustainable weed control delivered by providing tolerance to additional herbicide modes-of-action
Additional herbicide modes-of-action helps protect the longevity of glyphosate, while providing excellent weed control.
A wider spectrum of weed control
Tolerance to over-the-top applications of glyphosate, glufosinate-ammonium and dicamba to target both broadleaf and grass weed challenges.

You can also contact your local TBM for an opportunity to see XtendFlex® cotton in action.
