Why It Works

 

ThryvOn Technology

Built-in trait technology to provide season-long protection for the whole plant against tarnished plant bugs and thrips species.**

 

Bollgard 3 Technology

Three unique proteins against bollworm and key cotton pests can translate into fewer sprays and less potential damage to your cotton.

**ThryvOn Technology will protect against two species of tarnished plant bugs (Lygus hesperus and Lygus lineolaris) and thrips (Frankliniella spp.).

A New Tool To Fight Damaging Pests

Cotton growers have battled thrips and tarnished plant bugs for a long time using seed treatments and insecticide applications, but built-in trait protection offers season-long coverage.

Early Season

Thrips (Frankliniella spp.)

Mid Season

Tarnished Plant Bugs (Lygus hesperus and Lygus lineolaris)
