MORE CLASS OF 19 VARIETIES
After enduring our rigorous development process, including being field-tested by our New Product Evaluators, the Class of 19 has earned the right to be called Strong Cotton.
With growers expanding their cotton acres into the north, Deltapine saw a need for better genetics with early to very early maturity.
The shorter growing season in the northern High Plains and Panhandle creates a unique set of challenges for cotton growers — including the need to beat the early frost or freezes the weather can bring.
After extensive development and testing at our Lubbock breeding research facility and real-world evaluation as part of our New Product Evaluator (NPE) Program, DP 1908 B3XF is the Bollgard® 3 XtendFlex® variety that fits this region.
