Ask us anything. From agronomy to products, research to business tools and anything else that’s on your mind, we want to hear from you. Just input your question below and we will post the answer here for you to see.

How do I know how Producers Hybrids will perform in my area?

There are a few great ways to see how Producers Hybrids products will perform on your farm. On our Yield Results Tool, you can sort down by location and even hybrid to see how particular products performed near year. Our Plot Map Tool allows you to see where plots are so you can watch them progress throughout the year. If you want to meet your local dealer, you could find a Plot Day or Farm Show happening near you by checking out our Events page. Or, send us a quick note and we will make sure your local dealer follows up and shows you products that will perform on your farm.
When should I switch to an earlier hybrid?
If planting gets delayed, you may consider switching to an earlier hybrid. Although this decision may vary depending on the region you live in, there are a few things to keep in mind when making this important decision including:
1. The average frost date in the fall (this will affect the number of days you can collect GDUs to get the corn plant to maturity).
2. The amount of GDUs a hybrid typically needs to reach physiological maturity (black layer) will change when planted later in the season.
If you have any questions regarding planting, contact your dealer or agronomist or click here to send us a note and we will get you in touch with them.

What is di-haploid breeding technology and how does it help me?

Using conventional breeding technology, it can take nine years to bring a hybrid to market. With di-haploid breeding technology, that time can be cut in almost half, enabling us to place new and better hybrids in your hands even faster.
Where does your seed corn come from?

AgReliant Genetics is one of the few seed companies today with our own private library of genetics and we have access to genetics and biotech traits from all over the world! Our seed corn is grown within miles of the production facility located in Battle Creek, NE and is processed and packaged right in Battle Creek. If you want to see the entire seed corn production process from field to bag, watch the video below.

Do you do research in my area?

We sure do! AgReliant Genetics has 14 research stations spread across eight maturity zones and each station has 8 to 10 test sites within a 150-mile radius. Five of those research stations are focused on breeding hybrids for the western Corn Belt we cover so we can zero in on the development of high-yielding corn hybrids that meet the unique demands of your farm.
