DEMONSTRATION SITES

All of our commercial soybean varieties and corn hybrids are planted in small-scale plots, often replicated, by our own staff with our own equipment. Additionally, we plant a host of “competitor” varieties so you can see how we stack up to the competition.

FIELD-SCALE TRIAL PROGRAM

To help growers determine how a variety will perform under their local conditions, NorthStar Genetics will provide several units of seed to plant in side-by-side strip plots against other soybean varieties. Planted and harvested with field-scale equipment, this provides growers and NorthStar Genetics with field-scale yield comparisons.

Growers and dealers are welcome to tour our demonstration sites anytime throughout the growing season. Contact your NorthStar Genetics District Sales Manager for more information. To view yield data and field notes go to www.northstargenetics.com.

WE KNOW BEANS What are growers saying about NorthStar Genetics soybeans?

“NorthStar Genetics, to me, has the best package of varieties of soybeans that are suitable for our northern area… There are other companies that offer short growing season soybeans, but I haven’t seen any of them, so far, doing as well as the NorthStar Genetics varieties.

“Good work, as far as I’m concerned. The support, our representative and the team are always available. They’re just a phone call or a text away” Shawn Mooney - Star City, SK

At NorthStar Genetics, we know beans. www.northstargenetics.com

ENLIST E3 SOYBEANS Enlist E3 soybeans are elite, high yielding soybean genetics and industry leading multi-mode of action herbicide tolerance.

• Enlist E3 soybeans provide robust herbicide tolerance to 2, 4-D, glyphosate and glufosinate • Enlist Duo herbicide can be used in Enlist E3 soybeans with confidence as a pre-emergent or post-emergent herbicide

weed control system

• Enlist E3 soybeans provide an alternate glyphosate tolerance trait source SOYBEANS

• A multi-mode of action program approach is recommended to minimize the potential for the development of resistant weeds.

This includes the use of residual and complementary effective modes of action for pre-emergent and in-crop weed control

The Enlist™ weed control system will change how you think about weed management in soybeans. Farmers will be able to purchase Enlist E3™ varieties and take control of resistant and hard-to-control weeds.

• Enlist E3 soybeans are not tolerant to dicamba
