 Before
opening a bag of seed, be sure to read and understand the stewardship
requirements, including applicable refuge requirements for insect
resistance management, for the biotechnology traits expressed
in the seed as set forth in the Monsanto Technology Agreement that
you sign. By opening and using a bag of seed, you are reaffirming
your obligation to comply with those stewardship requirements.
 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires a refuge
on every farm that plants insect-protected corn hybrids. Failure to
plant the appropriate refuge jeopardizes your continued access to
DAS, Monsanto and Syngenta technology.
