Stine Agrisure Trait Corn

April 2017 

From season-long insect protection to built-in herbicide tolerance, Stine® corn featuring Agrisure® traits is in high demand this planting season. Here’s why:

  1. High-yielding genetics. Stine brand corn featuring Agrisure traits combines some of the industry’s most powerful trait packages with Stine’s high-yielding elite genetics to deliver exceptional hybrids with superior yields.
  2. Insect control. The Agrisure portfolio of traits boasts excellent above-ground insect protection against common corn pests such as corn rootworm and European corn borer. The Agrisure Viptera® 3110 trait, in particular, provides excellent control of European corn borer, southwestern corn borer, southern cornstalk borer, corn earworm, fall armyworm, dingy cutworm, beet armyworm, black cutworm, western bean cutworm, sugarcane borer and common stalk borer.
  3. Herbicide tolerance. Stine corn with Agrisure traits features herbicide tolerance, including several trait options that confer tolerance to in-season applications of glufosinate and glyphosate. Agrisure® GT/CB/LL combines the benefits of Agrisure® GT and Agrisure® CB/LL's trait technologies into a single hybrid with proven season-long corn borer protection and an inbred tolerance to glyphosate and Liberty® herbicide.
  4. Refuge options. Stine offers a wide selection of non-insect traited corn to allow growers to manage refuge their way. In addition, Agrisure Viptera® 3220 E-Z Refuge®, Agrisure® 3122 E-Z Refuge® and Agrisure Duracade® 5222 E-Z Refuge® brand corn offer growers high-yielding genetics for broad-spectrum lepidopteran control with the convenience of five percent integrated corn borer refuge in bag (E-Z Refuge).
  5. Choice. Stine delivers the best options for growers’ fields, including more than 30 Stine hybrids featuring one of eight different Agrisure trait packages. And we look forward to adding additional Agrisure Duracade® trait stacks to our lineup, which contain a unique mode of action to tackle western, northern and Mexican corn rootworm.
