Griffin L.L.C. is a customer-based, world-class supplier of crop protection chemicals. We currently offer cotton growers the broadest range of products and product categories of any company in the United States. We are pleased to have this opportunity to sponsor the High Cotton Awards and salute these exceptional growers. It reinforces our commitment to an industry we have served since 1935, when the company was founded in Valdosta, Ga.. Griffin L.L.C. is a joint venture company between Griffin Corporation and DuPont. We are currently experiencing growth in all market segments. By dedicating dollars and staffing resources, we maintain our position as a leading supplier of quality formulations supported by both field sales and technical service personnel.

Herbicides: New this season is Boa[TM] brand paraquat, formulated with 2.5 pounds active of paraquat per gallon. Boa is labeled for the same crops, applications and timings as all other paraquat brands. We now offer Glyphosate Original brand glyphosate, a stand-alone product labeled for over-the-top applications in Roundup Ready[R] cotton, through the 4-leaf stage. These contact herbicides are in addition to our strong residual line-up: Trilin[R] brand Griffin L.L.C. trifluralin, Cotton-Pro[R] brand prometryn, Direx[R] 4L and Karmex[R] DF brand diuron and Cotoran[R] brand fluometuron. Plant Growth Regulators: Griffin is a leader in early season PGRs with Early Harvest[R] TST/Talc Seed Treatment, the first PGR of the season. We also offer Mepex[R] brand mepiquat chloride. Harvest Aids: CottonQuik[R], our enhanced-ethephon product, opens bolls faster than other products in this class. We now offer FreeFall[TM] brand thidiazuron, the No. 1 defoliant active. When these two products are mixed together, they produce a synergistic effect that speeds up leaf drop and boll opening. Super Boll[R] brand ethephon rounds out our harvest aids.
