Technical Features

Feature

Description

Technology

Bollgard II (BG II) – Advanced protection against American, Pink, and Spotted Bollworms.

Plant Architecture

Strong, upright growth with a prolific number of fruiting (sympodial) branches.

Boll Quality

Uniform, large bolls with an excellent fluffy opening for "clean" harvesting.

Fiber Length

Superior staple length with high tensile strength, highly preferred by spinning mills.

Key Benefits

  • Exceptional Yield Stability: The plant is bred to retain a high percentage of its bolls even under environmental stress or fluctuating moisture levels.

  • Pest Resilience: Beyond its in-built BT protection, it shows strong field tolerance to common sucking pests like jassids and aphids.

  • Easy Picking: The bolls are positioned for easy access, which reduces harvesting labor costs and ensures the lint remains free of trash.

  • Extended Life Cycle: Its "stay-green" nature allows for a longer fruiting window, often leading to a heavy second and third picking.

  • RIB Complete: Includes the Refuge In Bag system, ensuring the necessary non-BT seeds are pre-mixed for effective resistance management and government compliance.


Cultivation Guidelines

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

  • Sowing Window: Ideal for Kharif sowing. Early sowing is recommended to maximize the plant's flowering potential.

  • Recommended Spacing:

    • Irrigated Conditions: 120 cm x 60 cm or 150 cm x 60 cm.

    • Rainfed/Dryland: 90 cm x 60 cm or 120 cm x 45 cm.

  • Nutrient Management: To support its high-yield potential, apply a balanced NPK basal dose. Foliar application of Gromor 19:19:19 during the early stages and 13:0:45 during boll development is highly recommended.
