BINDER FRIENDLY® HYBRID SELECTIONS 6 YEARS & COUNTING
For the 6th consecutive year, T.A. Seeds has planted and harvested corn plots
specifically for corn binders. T.A. Seeds once again is offering a list of
“Binder Friendly”® approved brands that will work best to maximize your use in
alternative harvesting.
This year T.A. Seeds has once again the most extensive testing for Binder
Friendly® corn hybrids with five locations: three in Centre County and two in
Lancaster County. Three of the locations will have our NEW line of NutriDense®
hybrids that we will be selling. The maturities that will be tested will range
from 90 to 117 day. As a result of this testing, we will be able to inform you,
the farmer, of the best brand for your location.
Each year Amish farmers harvest T.A. Seeds “Binder Friendly”® corn and rate
our brands on the best handling and quality for bindering. The following list of
T.A. Seeds brands is this year’s cream of the crop for “Binder Friendly.”®

The DAIRY FARMER is an integral part of Eastern Agriculture. At T.A. Seeds
our focus is YOU, the Eastern Dairy Farmer. We diligently select genetics by the
different climatic and soil zones in the East – ZONE SELECT GENETICS®. Our
product development process and on-site visits to your dairy operations have
enabled us to customize our brands of hybrid corn that is better-suited for
superior dairy performance. T.A. Seeds has identified the dairy hybrids with a
MILK BOTTLE SYMBOL located at each specific Hybrid Brand in our 2011 T.A. Seeds’
Product Guide. These identified Hybrids should maximize the Nutritional Aspect
of your milk production as well as the performance in your field. T.A. Seeds
Hybrid Corn Silage - T.A. Seeds is aggressively selecting corn hybrids that
will make MORE MILK. Dairy producers want more from their inputs every year and
T.A. Seeds’ Silage Only Hybrids and Dual Purpose Hybrids continue to produce
more CWT per acre. We balance Tonnage and Quality to offer the best silage corn
available by seed companies today. T.A. Seeds plants hundreds of brands to be
evaluated for silage Tonnage and quality from our small rep testing plots to our
on farm strip testing. Analysis is performed to determine which brand rises to
the top and is the “Cream” of the crop. Because of the behind the scene testing
- T.A. Seeds has also risen to the top in many independent testing programs that
evaluate our silage corn selections versus other National and Regional
companies. Our numbers speak for themselves in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009
we have won numerous competitions and placed in several others. Remember our
Hybrids give you the BEST Starting Point. Your Management is just as important
as the Hybrid. Harvesting silage at the proper moisture and how the silage is
prepared for feeding are factors critical in the nutritional program for your
cow. Ultimately producing the maximum CWT of milk is the goal for Your Dairy
Business. We look forward to being an intregal part of your operation. Please
continue looking at our 2011 T.A. Seeds Product Guide for Descriptions and
Characteristics of the above Hybrids.
T.A. Seeds is committed to
supplying the BEST possible hybrid for Dairy no matter which technology is
attached; whether it is Leafy, Conventional or GMO. Below are the “CREAM OF THE
CROP” for the dairy farmer.
