New Weed Control Systems
 
 
* Have you heard of a new weed control system for soybeans called Enlist Duo?
 
Yes
 
No
 
 
 
Below is a description of Enlist Duo, a new weed control system for soybeans which you may or may not have heard of. The system consists of a new genetically modified soybean seed and Enlist Duo post-emergent herbicide. Please read the description carefully and answer the following questions.
 
 
Enlist Duo Weed Control System
Enlist Duo is a proprietary blend of glyphosate and a new 2,4-D, Enlist Duo™ herbicide with Colex-D™ Technology is key to the performance of the Enlist™ Weed Control System. Enlist Duo combines two proven herbicides for exceptional control of a broad spectrum of weeds — including hard-to-control and resistant weeds. In addition, Enlist Duo offers advanced technology that reduces the potential for off-target movement and improves handling.
 
 
 
* Assuming you could get all the characteristics of your current soybean seed varieties, if Enlist Duo weed control system is available in your area in 2015, how likely would you be to try it on some of your soybean acres next season?
 
Definitely would try it
 
Probably would try it
 
Might/might not try it
 
Probably would not try it
 
Definitely would not try it
 
 
 
You indicated you "${piping_text}" in 2015 based on what you now know about Enlist Duo? On what percent of your soybean acres would you try Enlist Duo in 2015?
   % of 2015 soybeans
 
 
 
 
Don't know
 
 
 
* Suppose you saw successful field trials of Enlist Duo weed control system in your area in 2015. Assuming you could get all the characteristics of your current soybean seed, if available in your area in 2016, how likely would you be to try Enlist Duo on some of your soybean acres in the 2016 season?
 
Definitely would try it
 
Probably would try it
 
Might/might not try it
 
Probably would not try it
 
Definitely would not try it
 
 
 
You indicated you"${piping_text}" if you saw successful field trials of Enlist Duo weed control system in 2015? On what percent of your soybean acres would you try Enlist Duo in 2016?
   
 
 
 
 
Don't know
 
 
 
Suppose you tried Enlist Duo soybean weed control system in 2015 and found the seed performed agronomically the same as other soybean varieties on your farm. On what percent of your soybean acres would you use the Enlist Duo weed control system in the following year, 2016?
   
 
 
 
 
Don't know
 
 
 
Excluding custom application, how much per acre would you expect to pay for Enlist Duo seed and herbicide?
$    per acre

I would replace all of my post-emergent applications
 
I would eliminate my residual pre-emergent herbicide only.
 
I would eliminate my residual pre-emergent and replace my post-emergent herbicide applications.
 
I would use Enlist Duo in addition to my current soybean herbicide program, without dropping any current products.

* Have you heard of a new weed control system for soybeans called Xtend?
 
Yes
 
No
 
 
 
* Xtend is a new weed control system that includes soybean seed and a post-emergent herbicide blend of Dicamba and glyphosate. If  Xtend weed control system (Dicamba and glyphosate) were available, how likely would you be to use it instead of Enlist Duo (2,4-D and glyphosate)?
