The Ultimate Yield Tour also will feature a unique encapsulated nitrogen stabilizer for UAN and manure designed to give growers maximum flexibility for optimizing their nitrogen, safeguarding plant health and increasing yield – a product currently registered for use and sale only in Iowa and pending registration in other states.

Finally, stops on the tour will highlight performance of these products from Dow AgroSciences:

Mycogen® Mycogen® brand grain corn hybrids are built to perform strong right from the start and stand up to whatever the season throws at them for higher yields at harvest.
Surestart™ SureStart™ herbicide is a foundation herbicide that helps maximize the yield and profit potential of Roundup Ready® corn by controlling weeds during early stages of corn growth.
HERCULEX® XTRA Insect Protection HERCULEX® XTRA Insect Protection is the broadest-spectrum in-plant insect protection available. It delivers whole-plant, above- and below-ground protection all season long. You get powerful protection against corn borer, fall armyworm and corn rootworm, and the only in-plant protection against western bean cutworm and black cutworm.
Sonic™ Sonic™ herbicide provides soil-applied weed control for tough broadleaf weeds, including glyphosate-resistant species, in Roundup Ready soybeans, to help maximize the yield potential of emerging soybeans.

As you are driving to the Farm Progress Show, be on the lookout for Mycogen Seeds test plots located along Highway 30 and other sites near the show. See map for specific locations.
