HERCULEX® XTRA Insect Protection is an in-plant, insect protection trait. The protection offered is more comprehensive than what’s available from conventionally applied insecticide treatments, which must be timed appropriately. HERCULEX XTRA provides full-season, full-plant protection. The protein trait continually protects the plant throughout the entire season – no need for added costs to apply insecticides and no missed spray windows. HERCULEX XTRA is not affected by environmental conditions, such as drought or misapplication. No insecticide on the market today can control the variety of insects, in one single application, that HERCULEX XTRA protects against.
