NK Seeds unveiled new field data highlighting the superior performance of their 2023 Field Forged Series lineup of corn hybrids and soybean varieties, which combines the strongest performers, old and new alike. No longer do farmers have to decide between planting their go-to favorites and using innovative new hybrids and varieties. Across the Corn Belt, NK Seeds Field Forged Series products consistently outyielded key competitors in 2021 harvest trials. The national yield average numbers tell the story:
- Fifty-one NK® Field Forged Series corn hybrids landed in the top 10 in 2021 Farmers Independent Research of Seed Technologies (FIRST) tests.
- Thirty-eight NK Field Forged Series soybean varieties landed in the top 10 in 2021 FIRST tests — and 13 of those placed within the top three.
“Every season and every crop matters, but given the agronomic and economic pressures that farmers are facing this season, they want to be confident that the products they plant will maximize profit potential this fall,” says Jim Shertzer, Head of NK Marketing. “Of these industry-leading yields, six hybrids and 14 varieties are available for the first time commercially for the 2023 growing season. That kind of performance should give farmers confidence and reduce some of the risk that’s inherent in farming.”
