SeedWay adds Monsanto’s Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybeans to its arsenal

Date:02-29-2016

SEEDWAY, LLC has introduced a new line of high-performance Roundup Ready 2 Xtend™ soybeans to Northeast and Mid-Atlantic growers. SEEDWAY® brand soybeans are currently available through authorized SEEDWAY dealers for the spring 2016 planting season.

Seven new soybean varieties ranging from Group 0.9 to 4.5 in maturity feature the new Roundup Ready 2 Xtend™ trait. Growers now have another option featuring cutting edge genetics and technology with both dicamba and glyphosate herbicide tolerance.

The new SEEDWAY brand Roundup Ready 2 Xtend™ soybeans will provide growers with excellent yield potential, disease and stress tolerance and adaptation to varied growing conditions of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions.

Although Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybeans are tolerant to glyphosate and dicamba herbicides, the use of dicamba herbicide over the top of Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybeans remains in late stage of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) review and is not currently approved by the EPA. Once approved, the Roundup Ready® Xtend Crop System will offer growers a vital tool for managing tough-to-control and glyphosate-resistant weeds.
