New Delta and Pine Land web site, designed to meet needs of producers, distributors and retailers, sets standard for technology and service
Scott, Mississippi
August 16, 2005

Expanded services, improved sales and technical support, and more variety information are just a few of the improvements to the newly designed Delta and Pine Land Company (D&PL) website: www.deltaandpine.com.

Working with its marketing partner, Brighton Agency in St. Louis, D&PL gave its Web site a total re-build. The new site went live August 10.

“As the leader in the cotton seed business, we strive to set the industry standard for technology and service,” said Jim Willeke, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for D&PL. “The goal of our Web site makeover was to develop an easy-to-use information source customers can use to make informed decisions, whether they are looking for a local weather update, performance data on the leading cotton varieties in the United States – DP 444 BG/RR and DP 555 BG/RR – or information about new varieties and technologies such as DP 454 BG/RR and Roundup
Ready® Flex.”

Expanded weather, news and agronomic information on the site will aid D&PL producers and retailers in their every-day routines. No other cotton seed company is currently providing this level of information on the Internet, says Willeke.

Visitors to the sight can run comparisons of D&PL and competitor products on a region-by-region basis, calculate seeding rates and number of bags needed to plant x-amount of acres. They can access season-long agronomic and technical information and review the many other services and products offered by D&PL. The new site also houses an expanded level of product information.

D&PL invites producers to visit the new Web site and experience the ease of navigation and the breadth of information and services it provides. The site will be updated frequently with industry news and agronomic information from D&PL Technical Services.

“We hope our customers will find this site a valuable tool and a source for important information that helps them be successful,” Willeke said.

Delta and Pine Land Company is a commercial breeder, producer and marketer of cotton planting seed, as well as soybean seed, in the Cotton Belt. For almost 90 years, the company has used its extensive plant breeding programs, drawing from a diverse germplasm base, to develop improved cotton varieties. Delta and Pine Land Company (NYSE: DLP), headquartered in Scott, Mississippi, has offices in eight states and facilities in several foreign countries.

Bollgard and Roundup Ready are registered trademarks used under a license from Monsanto Technology LLC. Boll Box is a trademark of Delta and Pine Land Company.
