HEFTY BRAND SOYBEAN CLEANING PROCESS.
SEED QUALITY – Our sorting process individually scans each soybean seed and uses tiny shots of air to kick out any beans that are off-color or misshapen.
SEED PURITY – The electronic eyes are sensitive enough to pick dark hilum seeds out of a clear hilum seed lot.
SEED GERMINATION – The sorter is excellent at removing splits (including seed that has a comprised seed coat and is about to split) and green beans that have made it past the primary seed cleaning equipment.
SEED CONSISTENCY – The newest software and equipment available can sort seed not only by color and shape but also by size. This allows the machines to better pick out splits, shriveled seed, and volunteer corn.
SEED PLANTABILITY – Plantability issues are common across the seed industry in part because of the wide variance in seed size. Since our process also sorts seed by size, our seed is more uniform, improving plantability and yield.
REMOVED BEANS.
Our seed cleaning and the sorting process removes cracked, discolored, and misshapen beans to improve germination and yield at harvest.
HIGH-YIELDING BEANS.
Our cleaning and sorting process scans every individual seed and only the best make it through to get planted in your fields.
Consider the latest in soybean traits with XtendFlex®!
XtendFlex® Soybeans are the next evolution of Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® Soybeans with the addition of glufosinate tolerance. XtendFlex® soybeans have the high yield potential you’ve come to expect from the Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® trait along with the ability to use Roundup® herbicides, Liberty®, or XtendiMax® post-emerge to kill tough weeds.
Big-time yielder! Works on all soil types and yield environments.
Excellent fit for SD/MN/IA with SDS, IDC, RPS 3A and EXCLUDER!
National line with strong yields! Taller bean that’s just loaded with pods.
Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® Soybeans are built on the high yielding Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybean technology. The technology offers the yield and quality potential that farmers already know and trust from their Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybeans.
1. Is a pre-emerge herbicide program more important in conventional soybeans?
Yes. If you do not want to use at least three different, effective modes of action pre-emerge (and preferably pre-plant), we do not recommend planting conventional soybeans, as perfect weed control will be virtually impossible to achieve post-emerge. There are fewer post-emerge rescue choices to use in conventional soybeans, so getting great control pre-emerge, especially on broadleaf weeds, is critical. However, if you’re shooting for maximum yield and profit in traited soybeans, your pre-emerge weed control is very important there, as well.
2. What are my best post-emerge herbicide options in conventional soybeans?
While you can’t use dicamba, 2,4-D, Roundup, or Liberty in-crop on conventional soybeans, you still have a number of options. Scout and identify target weeds to determine which products will work best for you. Pursuit and FirstRate are two broad-spectrum ALS herbicides to base programs around. PPO herbicides like Flexstar, Cobra, Resource, and Cadet offer a control boost on weeds where the ALS chemistry falls short. There are many grass/volunteer corn herbicides like Select Max, Assure II, and Fusilade. Other broadleaf products include Basagran, Harmony SG, and Classic.
