Cotton Choices™ is returning for the 2011/12 cotton season, continuing to provide you with flexibility in managing your cash flow and production risks.
By planting Bollgard II® stacked with Roundup Ready Flex® you are eligible to participate in the Cotton Choices™ program, where you make the choice on how and when you pay for your crop technology fees.
Cotton Choices™ offers eligible growers the choice between opting for a Price Discount on crop technology fees; selecting the added value of Late Crop Removal (LCR) & Extended Terms; or paying a set End Point Royalty (EPR) per bale.
The Cotton Choices™ program applies to Bollgard II stacked with Roundup Ready Flex as well as any associated Roundup Ready Flex unsprayed refuge crops. Only one Cotton Choices™ selection is permitted per farm unit, your Cotton Choices™ selection must be nominated to your Technology Service Provider (TSP) by December 8th 2011.
Using the calculator enter your planting intentions and expected average yield, while also confirming your interest rate. The calculator will compare the Cotton Choices™ and provide you with an estimate of your expected payment and savings. Use the Cotton Choices™ Value Calculator and assess the best choice for your unique farming operation.
