KEY STRENGTHS
Best-in-class IDC tolerance! Brown stem rot and soybean cyst nematode resistance! Great full field yielder.

WEAKNESSES
This line will be a great fit on most acres; but for the well-drained, neutral pH ground, other varieties that don’t carry the defense this one has may pack more yield punch.

POSITIONING
Place this as a late 00 to early 0 line. Fits well in the Red River Valley into northeastern MN, especially with high pH soils and IDC pressure. Moves west into North Dakota with good plant height and stress tolerance.

Hefty Brand Seed has done well for me for years, especially the soybean seed.

I have always had my soybeans treated with Hefty Complete. The benefits are easy to grasp and help me to push for higher yields every year!
