The 2024 new product lineups from the DEKALB and Asgrow brands, based in St. Louis, Missouri, offer advanced agronomics and the latest trait technologies designed to provide farmers with outstanding performance and high yield potential.

The DEKALB corn brand is introducing 29 new products for next season, including six VT4PRO Technology products. These products offer three built-in modes of action through TreceptaTechnoloy that provide an elite above-ground pest package for corn. Also included are two below-ground modes of action, one being RNAi Technology, the latest defense from Bayer to help manage corn rootworm.

            All DEKALB products next season will include, at no additional cost, Acceleron ELITE with Enhanced Disease Control to help improve early-to-midseason disease protection. The brand’s VT4PRO and SmartStax PRO with RNAi Technology products will come with new nematicide Acceleron N-314 seed treatment and VT4PRO products will also contain the Poncho 1250 seed treatment.

            The brand’s 2024 portfolio also includes three new DEKALB Silage Proven products that meet high-quality forage standards of nutritional value per ton, milk per acre and percentage starch for dairy producing regions of the U.S. 

            Twenty-two new Asgrow XtendFlex soybean products will be launched next season. They offer the industry’s first triple-stacked soybean trait with tolerance to dicamba, glyphosate and glufosinate herbicides, providing flexibility to help farmers manage tough-to-control weeds.

            The Asgrow new product lineup also features resistance to key soybean diseases, including white mold, Phytophthora, brown stem rot and iron deficiency chlorosis, to help protect the high yield potential of Asgrow genetics.
