So I read something about GMO cotton and decided to try to find out what they had done to it. It wasn’t easy. But it’s called Deltapine, and in a nutshell it means that they want to increase the use of these three herbicides:dicamba, glyphosate and glufosinate herbicides. I haven’t bothered to look all of these up but the second one is roundup. Back to your regularly scheduled ag-ad

​TRIPLE-STACKED HERBICIDE TOLERANCE

​​BOLLGARD II® XTENDFLEX®

Bollgard II® XtendFlex® is the first cotton technology with tolerance to dicamba, glyphosate and glufosinate herbicides.

Notice: Do not apply dicamba herbicides in-crop to Bollgard II® XtendFlex® cotton in 2015. It is a violation of federal and state law to make an in-crop application of any dicamba herbicide on Bollgard II XtendFlex cotton unless the product label specifically authorizes that use. You should not make and Monsanto does not authorize making an in-crop application of any dicamba herbicide to Bollgard II XtendFlex cotton in 2015.

This triple-stacked tolerance gives you three unique modes of action for fighting tough-to-control and resistant weeds.
​With more choices for herbicide combinations to use, and greater flexibility for when you can apply them – before, at and/or after planting – it helps you take your weed management system to the next level.
Stacked with Genuity® Bollgard II®, this trait provides the same insect protection you trust to be effective today, in addition to effective weed control.
Bollgard II® XtendFlex® cotton is just one part of the Roundup Ready® Xtend Crop System.

Permaculture people need to stop buying cotton products.

Sorry! but at least the synthetic fibers made out of oil aren’t designed to kill freaking everything.

And with the conservative attitude toward the government these days “don’t tell me what to do”, do you really think that putting a disclaimer on Monsanto’s website **the government prohibits the addtion of this product once the plants are already growing** will have any effect at all other than increase the number of farmers that do exactly this.

With friends like those who needs… Oh wait they’re not my friend they are a big companyperson.
