Benefits of New Soybean Seed
Convenience:
High quality and high potential product
vs. bin-run
Meets quality standards of seed company - Professionally
handled and rigorously tested
Dramatically reduces splits and foreign
matter
Ensures varietal purity - Germination tests to help peace of mind -
Weed-free
Reliable seed supply in many maturities
Access to the most
elite germplasm Economics of New Seed vs. Bin-Run
Income lost by not
selling as commodity grain (e.g. 1 bushel of bin-run seed multiplied by the
price of a soybean bushel)
Average loss of ~1015% cleanout at harvest for
bin-run seed
Handling and transportation costs for bin-run (approx.
$.35$.75/bushel)
Bin-run planting rates are generally 15% higher than new
certified seed
New seed yields an average of 1.8 bushel/acre more than
bin-run (university yield trials range from 1.25.9 bushel/acre) Limited
Warranty Benefits
Dealer agronomic support before and after the sale
Risk management benefits of Roundup Rewardsฎ (over $600 million paid to farmers
