Plot Results for AcreEdge® Soybean Brand Announced

Results from nearly 40 plots available for analysis at LandusCooperative.com

AMES, Iowa (Nov. 2, 2017) Landus Cooperative, has harvested nearly all of its 38 Iowa soybean plots with the clear yield winner being the cooperative’s own AcreEdge® soybean seed brand.

“In all maturity levels, our AcreEdge soybean brands are beating out national competitors, in part, because we choose genetics based on local soils and expertise,” explained Todd Claussen, director of agronomy strategic marketing for the company. “This is not a seasonal phenomenon. We encourage you to visit with your Landus Cooperative Field Sales Agronomist about AcreEdge’s year-over-year performance.”

“As a farmer-owned cooperative we are committed to making our test results available for our members. We encourage area growers to visit the “Harvest Info” section of our website and click on the AcreEdge results section to see the results for their area,” explained Claussen. “You can browse the list based on your hometown or analyze plots from across the state.”

All of the plots utilized the same methodology and brand mix. Corn plot results are also available for review.

The cooperative is the only farmer-owned agronomy retailer to sell branded seed with Monsanto-licensed traits. For more than 30 years, the company has been offering trusted, local genetics with proven yield results.
