Seed Program
It is time to start thinking about next year’s seed selection already.  Look at what works on your farm, local plot data, and talk to your agronomist about exciting new hybrids.  Talk to your agronomist before November 10th to qualify for the seed program and ensure the right genetics for your farm. 

 Variable Rate Fertilizer
With the volatility of commodity prices and increasing input costs we need to be more efficient than ever.  One option is to place fertility resources where they will benefit you the most.  First we start with a gridded soil sample to see what your field needs are.  Then we send them to a lab for analysis.  We usually get results back in 7 business days.  Next we make specific field recommendations and spread accordingly with the newest air flow machines on the market. This program will increase efficiency, production, profitability, and make you a better steward of the land.  If you have any questions or comments contact your agronomist.
