An updated version of the Plains Cotton Growers Seed Cost Calculator for 2009 is now available. Growers interested in comparing prices for their 2009 planting seed options can download the calculator by clicking here.
The 2009 version includes 112 conventional, Roundup Ready, Roundup Ready FLEX, Liberty Link, Bollgard and Bollgard II and Widestrike varieties, as well as numerous stacked gene versions of these technologies that will be available for sale in West Texas in 2009. Should information on additional varieties become available, an update to the spreadsheet will be developed and posted on PCG's website.
The PCG calculator is an interactive Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that allows producers to calculate an estimated cost per acre, for both seed and technology, based on published suggested retail prices.
