Video: Enlist vs Xtendflex soybeans. Advantages and disadvantages of each. How the 2 systems work different

My experience with over a decade of growing both Enlist and Xtendflex soybeans. I'm an independent seedsman, I grew these traits 3-5 years before they were available to the wider seed marketplace thought the stewardship 3 year approval process. That gave me a unique view of both systems. I've learned alot and see the advantages and disadvantages of both systems. This video will break down my experiences in breeding, growing,spraying, harvesting and building the seed stock for the original Enlist and Xtendflex soybean seed stock supply that was increased very quickly and integrated into the marketplace over the last decade. I will especially dive deep into the herbicide chemistry and how and why it works and the advantages and drawbacks of the Enlist and Xtendflex herbicide programs, let's talk a little about narrow row beans while we're at it!
