Key Benefits

  • Exceptional Pest Resistance: The BG II technology minimizes the risk of crop loss due to bollworms, significantly reducing the need for chemical interventions.

  • Uniform Boll Development: Ensures that bolls across the plant mature at a similar pace, leading to a more efficient harvesting process.

  • Stress Resilience: High tolerance to common environmental stressors and standard sucking pests like jassids and thrips.

  • Premium Fiber Quality: Produces lint with high staple length and strength, making it a preferred choice for the market.

  • RIB Complete: Features the Refuge In Bag system, providing the necessary non-BT seeds pre-mixed for effective resistance management.

Cultivation Guidelines

  • Soil Selection: Thrives best in medium to heavy black cotton soils with good drainage and high nutrient retention.

  • Sowing Period: Recommended for the Kharif season (June–July).

  • Recommended Spacing:

    • Irrigated: 120 cm x 60 cm.

    • Rainfed: 90 cm x 60 cm or 120 cm x 45 cm (adjust based on soil fertility and local climate).

  • Nutrient Management: For optimum results, provide a balanced basal dose of NPK. Foliar applications of nutrients like Gromor Sponta 28:28:0 during early growth and Potassium Nitrate 13:0:45 during boll development can significantly enhance total yield weight.
