Genuity Roundup Ready Two Yield Soybeans - Farm Facts - NAPS-TV

THE LATEST SOYBEAN TECHNOLOGY IS HELPING AMERICAN FARMERS NOW PRODUCE MORE BUSHELS PER ACRE. GROWN ON ABOUT SIX MILLION ACRES IN 2010, THESE ADVANCED SOYBEANS ENABLE THE SAME EFFECTIVE WEED CONTROL AS PREVIOUS TECHNOLOGY, BUT WITH PROVEN, HIGHER YIELD OPPORTUNITY.

FARMER BOB BENSHOOF PLANTED THE TECHNOLOGY—GENUITY® ROUNDUP READY TWO YIELD® SOYBEANS—ON ABOUT HALF OF HIS ACRES THIS YEAR BASED ON ITS STRONG PERFORMANCE LAST SEASON. "LAST YEAR, WE SAW A YIELD BOOST FROM THOSE SOYBEANS. VERSUS COMPETITIVE VARIETIES, IN A SIDE-BY-SIDE TRIAL, IT WAS ABOUT THREE BUSHELS DIFFERENCE."

MANY FARMERS HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THESE SOYBEAN PLANTS PRODUCE MORE BEANS PER POD, WHICH CAN TRANSLATE TO MORE BEANS PER PLANT, AND MORE BUSHELS PER ACRE. THEYʼRE OBSERVING MORE THREE-FOUR- AND EVEN FIVE-BEAN PODS COMPARED TO THE EARLIER TECHNOLOGY.

"WE SAW A LOT OF FOUR BEANS TO THE POD, WHICH IS SOMETHING WE HAVE NOT SEEN, AND MORE THREES." AS HARVEST GOT UNDER WAY, MANY FARMERS WERE PLEASED TO SEE INCREASED YIELDS WITH THEIR GENUITY ROUNDUP READY TWO YIELD SOYBEANS. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT GENUITY.COM.
