PROVIDING SUSTAINABLE CROP
SOLUTIONS FROM SEED TO HARVEST
At Bayer CropScience, we help growers meet
the ever increasing demand for affordable and
high-quality food, feed, fiber and energy crops by
helping you exceed your yield expectations and
grow your business.
We have a passion for discovering new integrated
solutions and pioneering high-quality products
to boost agricultural productivity and profitability,
while at the same time, providing outstanding
technologies to safeguard harvests.
Bayer CropScience is accelerating the growth
of its seed and trait business, from offering
high-yielding seed varieties in cotton, canola and
soybeans to high-performance trait solutions
for weed and pest management. Our strategy
is based on advancements involving plant trait
technologies, and the evolution from a supplier
of traditional crop protection products into a
supplier of integrated solutions comprised of
products, technologies and services.
We are providing Integrated Pest Management
(IPM) solutions through our portfolio of biological
products that complement our current crop
protection products, seed and trait technologies,
and seed treatments.
PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY HELPS
BOOST PRODUCTIVITY
The application of biotechnology in agriculture
has resulted in benefits for both producers and
consumers. For example, genetically engineered
insect-resistant cotton has allowed for a
significant reduction in the use of insecticides.
Similarly, herbicide-tolerant soybeans, cotton,
canola and corn have enabled improved weed
control and use of herbicides with greater
margins of safety. Herbicide-tolerant crops help
preserve topsoil from erosion by permitting use of
no-till or reduced-tillage agriculture systems.1
Bayer CropScience is among the industry leaders
in research, investing more than 50 percent of
research and development dollars toward the
development of new seed and trait products.
Additionally, our research is augmented by
numerous cooperative agreements with
research partners.
STEWARDSHIP

INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
As defined by the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), Integrated Pest Management
(IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive
approach to pest management that relies on
a combination of common-sense practices.
Successful IPM programs rely on current,
comprehensive information on the life cycles of
pests and their interaction with the environment.
This information, in combination with available
pest control methods, is used to manage pest
damage by the most economical means while
minimizing hazards to people, property and the
environment. IPM applies to all pests — diseases,
weeds and insects — and should be an important
component of every grower’s operation.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
IN PRACTICE
Good IPM programs are designed such that
all methods of pest suppression are utilized.
Overreliance on any one pest suppression
tool, such as a biotechnology trait, will lead to
problems such as weed or insect resistance.
Growers are advised to follow agronomic best
management practices, coupled with IPM
recommendations of appropriate local experts
(Extension or consultant) and the Integrated
Weed Management (IWM) recommendations
detailed in this manual.
All IPM programs have several characteristics
in common. They include some type of pest
monitoring, reliable identification of pests —
disease, weed or insect — good record keeping,
intervention to reduce pest numbers and program
performance evaluation. Managing pests starts
ideally at the end of every growing season,
when growers evaluate crop performance and
management tactics. Where appropriate, good
stalk destruction will minimize the opportunities
for pests to overwinter. The end of the season
is also a good time to assess fields for potential
problems, such as surviving weeds or severe
weed, insect or disease pressure. Rotations of
crops and pesticide modes of action (MOA), in
addition to other IPM practices, are powerful
tools for managing such problems and delaying
the onset of resistance.
By the start of the growing season, growers
should have most of their IPM program in place.
Biotechnology traits perform best when the crop
is growing well and environmental stress is low.
Good hybrid or variety selection, recommended
seeding rates, planting dates and planting depths
can all promote plant health and thus, optimal
trait performance.
Scouting crops for key pests is essential. Growers
must be aware of the growth stages of weeds,
disease pressure and insect populations to make
good decisions. Fields should be monitored on
a consistent basis — at least once per week and
more frequently when the pest threat is higher,
such as when the bollworm egg deposition in
cotton is at its peak.
INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT
Bayer takes weed management very seriously,
which includes our Respect the Rotation™
initiative. It elevates the importance and grower
adoption of herbicide diversity through the
rotation of crops, traits and MOAs.
• Rotate crops. Crop rotation diversifies weed
management tools.
• Rotate herbicide-tolerant traits. Alternate
herbicide-tolerant traits and/or use herbicide-
tolerant trait stacks for more efficient
herbicide rotation.
• Rotate modes of action. Reduce the selection
pressure of a single MOA by using multiple
MOAs both during the growing season and from
year to year.
In addition, the following IWM techniques are
effective in reducing problems with herbicide-
tolerant and/or herbicide-resistant weed
biotypes. It is best to use multiple practices to
manage or delay resistance, as no single strategy
is likely to be totally effective.
1. Know Your Weeds, Know Your Fields
Today’s herbicides control a broad spectrum of
weed species, which minimizes the importance of
weed identification. However, proper identification
of weed species will help pinpoint which
herbicide program will work best on every acre.
It is equally important to understand the weed
pressure and history within each field. Closely
monitor problematic areas with difficult-to-control
weeds or dense weed populations. Scout for
weed escapes and look for the indicators listed
below to identify resistant weeds.
Take every opportunity to stop surviving weeds from producing
seed. This will reduce the soil seed bank and the selection
pressure, slowing the development of resistant weeds.
Indicators of Potential Weed Resistance
✔ A patch of weeds occurs in the same area year after year and is spreading.
✔ Dead weeds appear next to surviving weeds after the same herbicide application.
✔ Many weed species are managed, but one particular weed species is no longer controlled.
For example, following a glyphosate application, actively growing marestail can still be seen in the
absence of other weeds.
✔ The field has been sprayed repeatedly with the same herbicide MOA, particularly if there was no
MOA diversity in the weed management system.
I N T E G R A T E D P E S T M A N A G E M E N TI N T E G R A T E D P E S T M A N A G E M E N T
“What Bayer is doing really ties into the university message
because it talks about utilizing different herbicide modes of
action and also rotating traits in a way that keeps a sustainable
focus on our crop production and weed management. Utilizing
one herbicide, one mode of action or one technology only
leads us down the path where we lose that product or that
technology for future use.”
–Wes Everman, North Carolina State University

4. Apply Herbicides Correctly
Product efficacy is influenced by a multitude of
factors. Ensuring proper application maximizes
weed control and minimizes potential for
weed escapes.
• Apply to Actively Growing Weeds.
Herbicides provide peak performance when
applied to small, actively growing weeds.
These weeds absorb more of the active
ingredient, particularly with adequate soil
moisture, sunlight and optimal soil nutrients.
• Timing. Apply postemergence herbicides
soon after crop emergence when weeds
are no more than 3 to 4 inches tall. This is
typically 10 to 14 days after crop emergence.
The use of pre-emergence residual herbicides
provides critical control of early season weeds
that result in the greatest crop yield reduction.
Plus, residual herbicides help ensure
optimal weed management, particularly
if environmental conditions delay timely
post applications.
• Application Technique. Herbicides differ in
application guidelines. Read and follow all
label instructions to ensure proper application.
Factors affecting weed control include: spray
coverage, carrier volume, application speed,
adjuvants and tankmix partners.
• Product Rate. The rate listed on the product
label has been researched and tested by
manufacturers and university researchers to
provide optimal control of weeds at the height
listed on the label. When you apply a herbicide
at a rate less than listed on the label, the
result can be insufficient control that will have
a significant impact on the immediate weed
development and resistance risk.
5. Do Not Allow Weed Escapes
Treat every weed escape as if it is a resistant
weed. Problematic weeds that escape herbicide
applications should be controlled to reduce weed
seed production. Consider spot herbicide
applications, row wicking, cultivation, hand
removal of weeds or other techniques that stop
seed production to improve weed management
for the subsequent growing seasons.
6. Zero Tolerance — Reduce The Seed Bank
Do not allow surviving weeds to set seed in
order to decrease weed population shifts year
after year. Ensure that weeds are controlled up
to the edge of the field and discourage weed
seed production on field borders. One Palmer
amaranth plant can produce up to 1 million
seeds per plant in optimal conditions.3
Therefore,
the weed seed bank grows by allowing partially
controlled weeds to reproduce and set seed.
Creating a larger pool of weed seed in the
soil seed bank increases the probability weed
resistance will arise.
7. Clean Equipment
Avoid moving equipment that has not been
thoroughly cleaned to prevent the spread of
herbicide-resistant weeds and their seeds and
to reduce the potential to introduce new invasive
weeds onto uninfested acres.
INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT
SUMMARY
Overreliance on a single weed control method
causes resistant weeds to develop. It also
adds to the risk of the consequential loss of
a particular herbicide-tolerant system, and
may eventually jeopardize the ability to grow a
specific crop in a specific field. Growers face
additional costs to control resistant weeds
through unplanned herbicide applications, intense
manual labor, and in extreme cases, total crop
loss. Work preemptively through IWM practices
for successful management of a resistant
weed population.

2. Start Clean
Yields can be reduced significantly by early
season weed competition. Effective tillage or the
use of a burndown herbicide program can control
emerged weeds prior to planting. Regardless
of the tillage system (conventional, minimal or
no-till), a pre-emergence or early postemergence
soil-applied residual herbicide should be a part of
every weed control program.
3. Stay Clean — Use Overlapping
Residual Herbicides
In any weed management program, the goal
should be to control at least 80 percent of
the weed population with residual herbicides.
Residual herbicides applied at burndown,
planting or tankmixed in the first post application
with Liberty herbicide help ensure optimal weed
management, particularly if environmental
conditions delay timely post applications.
Residual herbicides also can reduce early season
weed competition and are a key element of good
weed resistance management practices.
Under intense weed pressure, use overlapping
residual herbicides to minimize weed competition
for soil moisture, light and nutrients. Maintain soil
residual herbicide activity with overlapping soil
residual herbicide applications from burndown
through canopy closure. This reduces weed
selection pressure and helps avoid weed escapes.

LIBERTY HERBICIDE
• Liberty herbicide plus the LibertyLink trait is
the preeminent weed management system for
hard-to-control weeds.
• Use Liberty herbicide with the LibertyLink trait
as part of an Integrated Weed Management
(IWM) system.
• Liberty herbicide with the LibertyLink trait
allows growers to spray Liberty in-crop for
nonselective postemergence control of the
toughest weeds, including Palmer amaranth,
giant ragweed, waterhemp and marestail.
• Spray Liberty, with its unique mode of action,
early to control weeds quickly before they
jeopardize yield potential.
• Liberty herbicide with the LibertyLink
trait provides efficient weed management
that enables nonselective and selective
herbicide rotation.
Liberty is a contact-based herbicide that
requires good coverage for maximum weed
control efficacy.
Rainfast in four hours, Liberty works fast,
controlling weeds within days versus weeks,
under favorable growing conditions. Weeds
that emerge after the application will not be
controlled, but adding a herbicide tankmix
partner for residual control can help keep fields
clean longer.
For best results, apply Liberty to young, actively
growing weeds to eliminate them quickly and
reduce the chance that they will rob crops of
yield potential.
Warm temperatures, high humidity and bright
sunlight improve the performance of Liberty. In
dry climates, take advantage of early morning
humidity by making spray applications during
that time. Additionally, spraying Liberty within two
hours of sunset could result in reduced velvetleaf
and lambsquarters control.
Liberty activity is optimized when daytime
temperatures reach at least 60 degrees
and relative humidity is at least 30 percent.
Apply Liberty at 15 gallons per acre (GPA)
with nozzles and pressure that produce a
medium-size spray droplet to ensure maximum
herbicide performance.
HOW TO SPRAY
As a contact herbicide, follow application
guidelines to ensure adequate coverage and
maximum weed control.
1. Apply early when weeds are no more than
3 to 4 inches tall.
2. Use nozzles and pressure that generate a
medium-size spray droplet.
3. Apply Liberty at 15 GPA of water; increase
water if dense weed canopy exists.
4. Apply at ground speed of less than 15 mph to
attain adequate coverage.
5. Apply when wind speeds are less than 10 mph.
6. Add ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 1.5 lb/A
(8.5 lb per 100 gal) to 3 lb/A (17 lb per
100 gal).* Rates are dependent on conditions.
7. Add tankmix partner.
Mixing Instructions:
1. Start with properly calibrated and
cleaned equipment.
2. Fill spray tank half full with water.
3. Start agitation.
4. Add AMS to spray tank.
5. Add tankmix partner.
6. Complete filling spray tank with water.
7. Add Liberty herbicide and continue agitation.
8. If foaming occurs, use a silicone-based
antifoam agent.
*Research has consistently shown AMS with Liberty herbicide improves weed control. AMS is especially needed for difficult-to-control weeds,
like velvetleaf and lambsquarters, under difficult environmental conditions (low relative humidity) or hard water.

NOZZLE CALIBRATION AND
SELECTION STEPS
1. Determine desired travel speed, nozzle
spacing and application volume based upon
equipment available, crop or weed size, and
field conditions.
2. Use the equation below to calculate the nozzle
flow rate required to deliver the required GPA.
GPM = Nozzle flow rate (gallons per minute per nozzle)
GPA = Gallons per acre
MPH = Vehicle speed (miles per hour)
W = Nozzle spacing (inches)
5940 = Constant
NOZZLE FLOW RATE TABLE
The following table contains the calculated
value of GPM for the indicated GPA, MPH and

THE LIBERTYLINK TRAIT
IN SOYBEANS
• The LibertyLink system provides excellent
weed control and preserves the yield of
high-performing varieties.
• LibertyLink soybeans allow growers to spray
Liberty herbicide in-crop for nonselective
postemergence control of the toughest
weeds, including Palmer amaranth, giant
ragweed, waterhemp and marestail.
• With a unique mode of action (MOA), Liberty
allows growers to control weeds within days,
not weeks, under favorable conditions.
WHERE YOU CAN FIND
LIBERTYLINK SOYBEANS
• Bayer CropScience has broadly licensed the
LibertyLink trait to combine high-yielding
genetics with the powerful, nonselective
postemergence weed control of Liberty.
• With soybean seed available through more
than 100 seed companies, growers can
manage their weed pressures with LibertyLink
varieties that fit their growing conditions.
Bayer CropScience continues to collaborate with
leading soybean breeding programs to develop
high-yielding LibertyLink soybean varieties
for growers in the United States and Canada.
Varieties developed are widely adapted and
demonstrate yield and agronomic performance
as good as or better than the best available
commercial checks.
APPLICATION INFORMATION BEST
WEED MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
Hard-to-control weeds are a serious threat to
row crop production. Intensive management is
required to control the toughest weeds, especially
driver weeds such as Palmer amaranth. Use all
practical means to avoid any escaped weeds
going to seed in or around fields. Use of robust
herbicide rates, multiple modes of action and
overlapping soil-applied residual herbicides
from burndown through canopy closure are
important practices.
Proper stewardship of Liberty herbicide is
necessary to ensure the long-term sustainability
of LibertyLink technology. Rotating crops, traits
and MOAs allows for diversity within a herbicide
program and sustains the longevity of any given
herbicide chemistry. Use cultural, mechanical and
chemical weed control methods as necessary to
ensure weeds do not produce viable seed and to
prevent weed escapes from going to seed and
depositing in the seed bank. Multiple practices to
manage tough-to-control weeds are essential, as
no single strategy is totally effective.
1. Start Clean:Start with a clean, weed-free
field by using an effective burndown
application or conventional tillage.
2. Stay Clean:Use an Overlapping Residual
Weed Control Program. Be aggressive with early
season weed management to avoid yield loss
and weed escapes. Residual herbicides applied
at burndown, pre-emergence and/or tankmixed
in the first post application help ensure optimal
weed management, particularly if environmental
Apply a broad-spectrum pre-emergence
or PPI residual herbicide such as:
Authority Assist (2*, 14), Authority First (2, 14),
Enlite®
(2, 14), Envive®
(2, 14), metolachlor (15),
metribuzin (5), Prefix (14, 15), Sonic (2, 14),
Valor (14), Valor XLT (2, 14) or Warrant (15).
Consider expected weed species and
populations, as well as environmental variables
in the area, when selecting a residual herbicide.
3. Scenario One — Residual Used
Pre-emergence, PPI or At Planting:
a. Apply Liberty at 29 fl oz/A over the top of
LibertyLink soybeans from emergence to 14
days after crop emergence or when weeds
are no more than 3 inches to 4 inches tall.
b. Apply Liberty at 29 fl oz/A on an as-needed
basis following the first application
at 29 fl oz/A.
4. Scenario Two — Environmental Conditions
Prevent Timely Application:
a. If environmental conditions prevent timely
Liberty application, a single application of
up to 36 fl oz/A may be made.
b. If 36 fl oz/A is used for the first application,
a second application of 29 fl oz/A should be
made at least 10 days after the first application.
Increase water and shorten interval between
post applications if canopy is heavy.
5. Additives:Ammonium sulfate (AMS) can be
used at a rate of 1.5 lb/A to 3 lb/A**. Rates are
dependent on conditions.
6. Water Volume:Liberty is a contact herbicide
that requires good coverage with medium-size
droplets applied at a minimum of 15 GPA
water volume. If dense canopy, large weeds
or unfavorable growing conditions are
present, increase water volume to a minimum
of 20 GPA.
7. Maximum Seasonal Use:Up to 65 fl oz/A
of Liberty can be applied on soybeans per
growing season.
8. Additional Use Directions:
a. Make all Liberty applications at least
70 days before soybean harvest.
b. Make all Liberty applications before
soybeans begin to bloom.

TOP 10 MOST FREQUENTLY SPRAYED
WEEDS IN SOYBEANS
YIELD LOSS DUE TO COMPETITION
Weeds that emerge with the crop, or shortly
thereafter, have the greatest potential to negatively
affect yields. The yield loss associated with this
flush of weeds is strongly influenced by how
long weeds are allowed to remain in the field and
compete with crops for light, water and nutrients.
Residual herbicides can improve weed control,
reduce problematic weeds and extend the
time period between planting and the first
postemergence treatment of Liberty herbicide.
This allows for flexibility when weather conditions
prevent timely postemergence applications.
Additionally, using a residual herbicide in your
weed control program introduces another
herbicide MOA in the field, improving your weed
management program.
According to a 2010 University of Tennessee
study4
, cotton and soybean growers lost
nearly $138 million due to glyphosate-resistant
Palmer amaranth. Their weed control costs also
increased as follows:
• $78.5 million in increased herbicide costs
-- $35 per acre on 1.6 million soybean acres
-- $55 per acre on 0.4 million cotton acres
• $10 million in increased application costs
-- $5 per acre on 2 million acres
• $49.35 million due to glyphosate-resistant
weed competition
-- 30 percent of soybean acres at 17 percent loss
-- 15 percent of cotton acres at 25 percent loss
A study conducted by the University of Nebraska5
determined that the critical period for weed
removal in soybeans is based upon the soybean
row spacing. For soybeans planted in 30-, 15-,
and 7.5-inch rows, the critical removal time is V3,
V2 and first trifoliate, respectively. Furthermore,
the study shows there is a 2 percent yield loss
for every soybean leaf-stage delay in applying
a nonselective herbicide to the crop during the
critical time for weed removal.
YIELD LOSS EXAMPLES
• Studies out of North Carolina State University
and the University of Georgia6
in 2012 show
soybean yield loss of as much as 68 percent
as a result of Palmer amaranth interference at
a density of one plant per square foot.

• Residual herbicides (such as atrazine,
Laudis, Corvus and Capreno), in addition to
timely applications of Liberty, are strongly
recommended in a LibertyLink weed
control program.
• Crops with the LibertyLink trait allow growers
to spray Liberty in-crop for nonselective
ragweed, waterhemp and marestail.
• With a unique mode of action, Liberty allows
growers to control weeds within days, not
weeks, under favorable conditions.
• Liberty can be tankmixed with most other crop
protection products labeled for use in corn.
All LibertyLink corn hybrids have built-in tolerance
to Liberty herbicide, while maintaining excellent
crop safety, performance and yield. These
hybrids are fully approved for food, feed and
cultivation in the United States and Canada.
LibertyLink corn is approved for export to many
countries around the world. Today, this trait is
widely available in high-yielding hybrids from elite
germplasm providers. LibertyLink corn is ideal for
U.S. growers, whether on rotated acreage or in
aggressive corn-on-corn production systems.
LIBERTY UTILITY IN Bt CORN REFUGE
To preserve the efficacy of Bt corn technology,
government regulations require growers to
implement an Insect Resistance Management
(IRM) plan. A proper IRM plan includes a non-Bt
refuge planted in conjunction with Bt corn acres
to prevent insect resistance to the technology.
Selecting a Bt refuge hybrid for any of the
previously mentioned LibertyLink Bt hybrids will
allow for the use of Liberty herbicide across the
entire area, enabling growers to obtain the full
value and convenience of the LibertyLink trait.
If a suitable LibertyLink hybrid is not available,
configuring the refuge area in a separate field,
or in a contiguous block within the same field as
the Bt hybrid, will allow Liberty to be used for
weed control in the Bt hybrid area. It is imperative
that the location where each hybrid is planted
is clearly documented and marked, either on a
GPS map or with flags or markers in the field, to
help ensure that Liberty is sprayed only on fields
planted with LibertyLink hybrids.
For more detailed information on refuge options and
acceptable configurations for specific Bt products,
consult with your seed seller or Bt trait provider.

BAYER RESIDUAL
HERBICIDE OFFERINGS
Bayer CropScience provides strong residual
herbicide options — both pre-emergence and
postemergence — to complement Liberty
herbicide in a LibertyLink corn program.
Pre-emergence Herbicides:
• Corvus (2, 27*) pre-emergence corn herbicide
provides consistent, broad spectrum control
of grass and broadleaf weeds for a full season
at just 5.6 fl oz/A. Corvus delivers rapid
burndown, long-lasting residual control and
reactivation for dependable weed control. It
can be used in traditional herbicide programs,
as well as in a program that pairs trait
technology with a nonselective herbicide,
such as Liberty or Roundup®
.
• Balance Flexx (27) pre-emergence corn
herbicide is an excellent set-up product in a
sequential program with Liberty herbicide.
Using Balance Flexx as the foundation
for a two-pass herbicide program gives
corn growers an excellent combination of
tough weed control and weed resistance
management with crop safety and flexibility.
Postemergence Herbicides:
Bayer CropScience also offers effective
postemergence herbicides for a conventional
program or as a tankmix partner in a herbicide-
tolerant system. Postemergence residual
options to consider:
• Capreno (2, 27) post-applied corn herbicide.
Capreno has the longest-lasting residual
available in a postemergence herbicide
and combines two active ingredients for
complete control of more than 65 grass and
broadleaf weeds, including those resistant to
glyphosate, with just 3 fl oz/A. Apply Capreno
early (V1-V5) with Liberty to get the full benefit
of a season-long residual.
• Laudis (27) postemergence corn herbicide,
with its powerful weed control and unsurpassed
crop safety, provides in-season residual
control in a tankmix with Liberty.
WEEDS IN CORN
Research indicates that delaying a postemergence
herbicide application until weeds are 6 inches tall
results in a significant yield loss. Many factors
come into play, such as weed species and the
density of the plants present.
The bottom line is that not controlling weeds early
in the season costs growers at harvest.
YIELD LOSS EXAMPLES
Early season competition from a heavy waterhemp
infestation (more than 30 plants per square foot)
reduced corn yields 15 percent by the time the
waterhemp was 6 inches tall. With lower waterhemp
densities (less than 10 plants per square foot),
yields were reduced by only 1 percent when
waterhemp was controlled at 6 inches.7

THE GLYTOL TRAIT IN COTTON
GlyTol trait technology delivers season-long,
in-plant tolerance to glyphosate herbicide.
The GlyTol trait keeps crops safe from any
brand of glyphosate labeled for cotton.
Commercialized for U.S. cotton in 2011, it is the
first glyphosate-tolerant alternative to Roundup
Ready Flex technology. GlyTol gives growers
a competitive edge with a wide window for
postemergence applications and additional
trait combinations.
GlyTol is available in high-yielding, high-performing
FiberMax and Stoneville varieties across U.S.
cotton geographies, offering growers:
• Proven crop safety to various glyphosate
formulations with no impact on yield, quality or
plant height.
• Allows over-the-top, season-long use of
any glyphosate brand labeled for cotton,
which gives growers freedom in their
herbicide choice.
• Production efficiency and flexibility to allow
growers to make the right decisions for their farm.
THE LIBERTYLINK TRAIT IN COTTON
high-performing varieties.
postemergence control of the toughest weeds,
including Palmer amaranth, giant ragweed,
waterhemp and marestail.
THE GLYTOL LIBERTYLINK TRAIT
STACK IN COTTON
GlyTol LibertyLink (GL) technology in cotton
brings an industry first — the ability for
growers to make over-the-top applications
of either Liberty herbicide or glyphosate with
full commercial tolerance to both herbicides.
This innovation provides even greater flexibility
in weed management and management of
glyphosate-resistant weeds. GL-traited cotton also
protects against the potential for damage due to
off-target movement of Liberty or glyphosate from
nearby fields.
TWINLINK TRAIT STACK IN COTTON
TwinLink cotton technology combines season-long
Bt protection against worm pests with powerful
weed management technology. It contains two
Bayer proprietary Bt genes that provide effective
management of major lepidopteran pests such as
tobacco budworm, pink bollworm, cotton bollworm,
fall armyworm and beet armyworm. TwinLink also
confers full tolerance to Liberty herbicide to control
a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds.

INSEED™
TRAIT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM
The InSeed™
trait identification system consists of the
following traits, easily identified on bags appropriate for
each unique need.
HERBICIDE TOLERANCE
This icon illustrates herbicide tolerance and indicates
which herbicides can be used. LibertyLink indicates that
the herbicide Liberty can be applied to cotton. GlyTol
indicates that glyphosate herbicides can be sprayed.
When LibertyLink and GlyTol are indicated, it means that
both Liberty and glyphosate herbicides can be used in a
program, conferring a double herbicide-tolerant property
to cotton.
INSECT RESISTANCE
This icon illustrates insect resistance. TwinLink is a new
Bayer CropScience insect resistance product providing
two-gene insect-resistant protection against Lepidopteran
pests (budworm/bollworm complex). In the future, other
pests (aphids, Lygus, etc.) will be controlled by new traits.
HERBICIDE TOLERANCE/INSECT RESISTANCE
The insect resistance icon paired with the herbicide
tolerance icon indicates that this cottonseed has both
properties. GlyTol and LibertyLink stacked with TwinLink
provides two-gene insect-resistant protection and double
herbicide tolerance.
28
TwinLink will be available as a GlyTol LibertyLink
TwinLink (GLT) trait package, which provides two
Bt genes plus full tolerance to Liberty herbicide
and glyphosate. This trait package is a powerful
tool for high-level caterpillar control and offers
two choices for over-the-top, broad-spectrum
herbicide applications. GLT gives growers the
flexibility to choose the herbicide applications that
best fit their cotton-growing conditions and farm
management practices. Growers have the ability to
rotate herbicide MOAs to control weeds effectively
and reduce the potential of weed resistance.
TwinLink produces two insecticidal Bt proteins,
Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae, with independent actions for
highly effective control of key leaf- and fruit-feeding
lepidopteran pests. These novel Bt genes protect
against a wide range of worm pests to help cotton
growers maximize yield potential and fiber quality.
It is anticipated that the first varieties with
TwinLink will be available in both FiberMax and
Stoneville brands in the United States beginning
in 2014, pending international import approvals.

THE FUTURE IS FILLING UP
Keep an eye on our pipeline — this is only the
beginning. The InSeed trait identification system
will continue to grow, because Bayer CropScience
is committed to bringing the latest innovations in
cotton to growers each and every day. InSeed is
just the latest step in a process that starts in our
pipeline and ends with quality products.

COMPLIANCE MONITORING PROGRAM
The U.S. EPA requires Bayer CropScience to
take corrective action in response to a finding
of noncompliance by growers to the refuge
requirements of GLT cotton. Bayer CropScience
or an approved agent of Bayer CropScience
is required to monitor compliance with refuge
requirements. The Bayer Grower Technology
Agreement (BGTA) stipulates that upon request
by Bayer CropScience or an approved agent,
a grower must provide the location of all fields
planted with Bayer CropScience biotechnologies
and the locations of all associated required
refuge areas so that they may be verified
to be in compliance with GLT registration
requirements. Bayer CropScience will provide
the grower advance notice of any inspections,
and such inspections will be performed during
regular working hours to accommodate the
grower’s schedule so that the grower may be
present if desired.

2. Stay Clean:Use an Overlapping Residual
Weed Control Program. Be aggressive with
early season weed management to avoid yield
loss and weed escapes. Residual herbicides
applied at burndown, pre-emergence and/
or tankmixed in the first post application help
ensure optimal weed management, particularly
if environmental conditions delay timely post
applications. Consider expected weed species
and populations as well as environmental
variables in the area when selecting a
residual herbicide.
3. Scenario One — Residual Used
Pre-emergence, PPI or At Planting:
LibertyLink cotton from crop emergence to
14 days after crop emergence or when weeds
are no more than 3 inches to 4 inches tall.
b. Apply Liberty at 29 fl oz/A on an as-needed
basis following the first application
at 29 fl oz/A.
c. A third application of 29 fl oz/A can also
be made in cotton on an as-needed basis,
only if the previous two applications did not
exceed 29 fl oz/A in either application.
4. Scenario Two — Environmental Conditions
Prevent Timely Application:
a. If environmental conditions prevent timely
Liberty application, a single application
of up to 43 fl oz/A may be made in the
first application.
b. If 43 fl oz/A is used for the first application,
a second application of 29 fl oz/A should
be made 10 days after the first application.
Sequential applications should be at least
10 days apart. Increase water and shorten
interval between post applications if
canopy is heavy.
water volume. If dense canopy, large weeds
or unfavorable growing conditions are
present, increase water volume to a minimum
of 20 GPA.
6. Maximum Seasonal Use:Up to 87 fl oz/A of
Liberty can be applied on cotton per growing
season or up to 72 fl oz/A if more than
29 fl oz/A was used in a single application.
See Liberty label for guidelines on maximum
seasonal use rates.
a. Do NOT apply glyphosate within seven days
following a Liberty application or reduced
herbicide efficacy may occur.
b. Full rates of Liberty are recommended
regardless of tankmix herbicide.
c. Make all applications when wind speeds
are less than 10 mph and not during
d. Do not apply within 70 days of harvest.
e. Consult product label for full use directions
and restrictions.

TO REMEMBER
• Use 15 GPA; in dense canopies or in arid
environments, increase water volume to
20 GPA.
• Maximum performance is achieved
when applications are made to actively
growing weeds.
• Apply from emergence to early bloom
growth stage.
• Sequential applications should be applied at
least 10 days after the first application.
WEEDS IN COTTON
Weeds that emerge with the crop, or shortly
thereafter, have the greatest potential to adversely
impact yields. The yield loss associated with
this flush of weeds is strongly influenced by how
long weeds are allowed to remain in the field and
compete with crops for light, water and nutrients.
Weed scientists state that effective weed control
during the first nine weeks after emergence is
critical to produce optimum cotton yields.
Residual herbicides improve weed control, reduce
problematic weeds and extend the time period
between planting and the first postemergence
treatment of Liberty herbicide. Furthermore, the
use of residual herbicides increases application
flexibility in case of unfavorable weather
conditions. Use a residual herbicide in your weed
control program to introduce another herbicide
MOA in the field and enhance your weed
management program.
According to a 2010 University of Tennessee
study4
, cotton and soybean growers lost nearly
$138 million due to glyphosate-resistant Palmer
amaranth. Their weed control costs also
increased as follows:
• $78.5 million in increased herbicide costs
-- $35 per acre on 1.6 million soybean acres
-- $55 per acre on 0.4 million cotton acres
• $10 million in increased application costs
-- $5 per acre on 2 million acres
• $49.35 million due to glyphosate-resistant
weed competition
-- 30 percent of soybean acres at 17 percent loss
-- 15 percent of cotton acres at 25 percent loss
YIELD LOSS EXAMPLES
Research in Georgia8
in 2006 and 2007 noted
that two glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth
spaced every 7 meters of row (91-cm row spacing)
reduced cotton yield by 23 percent.

WEEDS IN CANOLA
Early season weed control is critical. Residual
herbicides can improve weed control, reduce
problematic weeds and extend the time period
between planting and the first postemergence
treatment of Liberty. This allows for much needed
flexibility when weather conditions prevent timely
postemergence applications. Additionally, using a
residual herbicide in your weed control program
introduces another herbicide MOA in the field,
improving your weed management program.

Research9
in western Canada has shown that a
5 percent yield loss in canola can result from just
two weeds per square meter (see tables below).
