Bollgard® 3 ThryvOn® Cotton With XtendFlex® Technology
Bollgard® 3 ThryvOn® Cotton With XtendFlex® Technology is the industry’s first cotton biotech trait to provide built-in protection against key tarnished plant bug and thrips species, and may help reduce the need for some insecticide applications.*
1. FEATURES & BENEFITS
Increased Protection for Cotton Plants
ThryvOn® Technology is the industry's first cotton biotechnology trait that provides protection against key tarnished plant bug and thrips species.*
Through built-in trait technology, ThryvOn Technology defends the whole plant from these yield-robbing insects.
ThryvOn Technology provided a 73% reduction in average season-long injury from key thrips species compared to the check in farmer-managed 2021 Ground Breakers® Field Trials.**
Key tarnished plant bug species arrive early season to midseason, feeding on the squares, flowers and bolls, which causes them to fall off. With a 6.1% increase in square retention, ThryvOn Technology provided a statistically significant increase across locations*** compared to the negative check. This leads to improved yield potential.
Pest Control Stacked in Your Favor
ThryvOn Technology is stacked with Bollgard 3 XtendFlex Technology to provide a broad spectrum of insect protection, including protection against bollworm, tobacco budworm and other common worm pests.
More Weed Management Flexibility
With tolerance to glyphosate and glufosinate, Bollgard 3 ThryvOn cotton with XtendFlex Technology provides more options against tough-to-control and resistant weeds like Palmer amaranth, waterhemp and marestail.
2. PERFORMANCE
Designed to Thrive
Because it is built to provide a high level of trait performance and protection, Bollgard 3 ThryvOn cotton with XtendFlex Technology helps protect agronomic investments.
With season-long protection, ThryvOn Technology is the new defense against key tarnished plant bug and thrips species, helping cotton thrive.*

*Scouting is critical to determine which and how many insecticide applications are recommended to avoid economic loss greater than pest management costs (i.e., when economic thresholds are met). Check with your local state extension university for the latest spraying recommendations.
