As farmers, we know the pressure that comes with every seed decision.

The stress it causes when you’re left wondering if you made the right choice.

The second guessing. The worrying. It’s not a good feeling.

It’s time to flip the script. To feel less pressure during the season.

Less second-guessing. And less worrying if you got it right.

You deserve a team who understands you, your fields and how you like to operate. Who gives you more confidence in the decisions you make.

And more control in how you make them.

CP IQ 3501 KEY STRENGTHS

GreenTreat 1531 KEY STRENGTHS

• IQ (improved quality) series has higher forage quality potential than conventional hybrids

• Excellent forage quality of the BMR-6 gene paired with the brachytic dwarf trait; lower cutting height and high leaf-to-stem ratio

• Extremely flexible hybrid; excellent disease and drought tolerance allow for placement across most of the U.S. • Excellent yield potential; similar to a late-season hybrid; better on toughest dryland than 3506 • Excellent standability; plants can reach 7-8 feet; manage water and fertility for a mid-maturity hybrid • Recommended seeding rate: 50-60K seeds per acre at 1-1 1/2 in. deep, depending on soil moisture

• Excellent variety for drought tolerance and heat stress; strong disease package for humid areas and anthracnose risk • Dry stalk (~5% less) paired with fine stems allows for easier transition into dry hay use • Forage quality may be compromised without proper harvest management (40 days or 40 in.); harvest prior to 50 days before head is initiated • Recommended seeding rate: 20-25 lbs. per acre at a depth of 1 inch (by drill)

GreenTreat 1931 KEY STRENGTHS

GreenTreat 1961 KEY STRENGTHS

• Brachytic dwarf BMR-6 gene for excellent efficiency; sugarcane aphid tolerant, photoperiod sensitive, male sterile

• Standard height BMR-6 gene for excellent efficiency; sugarcane aphid tolerant, photoperiod sensitive, male sterile

• Photoperiod sensitive trait keeps plants vegetative with 12 hr 20 min daylight; head formation starts afterward.

• Photoperiod sensitive trait keeps plants vegetative under 12 hr 20 min daylight; heading starts afterward.

• Male sterile trait aids in capturing plant sugars as it will not produce viable seed as heads emerge at end of the season

• Male sterile trait aids in capturing plant sugars as it will not produce viable seed as heads emerge at end of the season

• Harvest at 40 days or 40 inches, whichever comes first. For grazing, start at 18–24 inches and remove animals when two nodes remain above ground.

• Harvest at 40 days or 40 inches. For grazing, start at 18–24 inches and remove animals leaving two nodes above ground.

• Recommended seeding rate: 20 to 25 lbs. per acre at a depth of 1 inch (by drill is recommended)

• Recommended seeding rate: 20 to 25 lbs. per acre KEY at a depth of 1 inch (by drill is recommended)
