Pride in Performance


At Deltapine®, we take pride in providing the strongest cotton possible.
For generations, we've pursued performance to bring growers maximized yield potential and fiber quality.

The Story of Deltapine

100 years of breeding innovations have led to our strongest cotton yet.

1915

The Delta and Pine Land Company begins its cotton variety breeding and development business.

1985

Deltapine 50 is released for planting. This variety is one of the most popular with consistent high-end performance, planted on more than 12% of upland acres in the U.S. by 1993.

1998

The first Deltapine Bollgard® with Roundup Ready® stacked-gene cotton varieties are commercialized.

2008

The Deltapine New Product Evaluator (NPE) Program is created to put leading cotton growers at the center of Deltapine germplasm evaluation. NPE evaluation has assisted in the rapid identification of new Deltapine brand varieties that meet grower production expectations for all regions of the Cotton Belt.

Strength. Tradition. Pride.


Celebrate the pride that informs every detail, shapes every decision and guides every generation of cotton growers.

New Product Evaluator Program

Our growers know strength. That’s why we asked more than 200 of them from across the Cotton Belt to put every new Deltapine brand cotton variety candidate to the test. NPE growers get the final say on which candidates get the title of Strong Cotton.
