Next Gen Soybeans: And, They’re Off!

BY ROD MORAN, SOYBEAN LEADER

We are enthusiastically off and running for the 2022 growing season with a dozen fresh products in our portfolio: 10 Enlist E3® soybeans and two conventional. The Next Gen Enlist E3® soybean class gives growers their first and best opportunity to plant, assess, and harvest the beginnings of a pipeline rife with Corteva Agriscience based Enlist E3® soybean genetics across all RMs. One third of our portfolio is brand new -- allowing us to shift to a new gear and charge full steam ahead while separating ourselves from others within the industry’s herbicide tolerant platform options.

Dairyland Seed agronomists travel throughout the Midwest observing and taking notes on the Enlist E3 soybeans.

For myself, and I hope you too, it is beyond exhilarating to be on the precipice of a brand-new era for Dairyland Seed and our farming family! In fact, we’re currently bookended by the new next Generation DSR-0220E™ brand and DSR-3903E™ brand which are just beginning to show their individualism in our Dairyland Seed plots scattered across our footprint.

While making initial observations of early vegetative characteristics for all lines such as emergence, PRR field tolerance, and initial vigor, reports and personal observations are that this class is bringing sound improvement to the current portfolio. We will keep our eyes peeled and our ears open as this growing season progresses fixated on these dozen new products. We would also ask for you to communicate your observations to a Dairyland Seed team member to allow us to coordinate and capture data that will improve our placement and performance objectives.

The entire Corteva Agriscience breeding team and Dairyland Seed staff is over the moon excited with what the current and future classes hold in store. We are beyond confident that the soybean portfolio performance will gain greater product resilience and yield potential when placed appropriately. These products will allow us to gain a reassuring swagger and invoke a confidence level that is well above par to our industry competitors. We truly believe we can cross the finish line ahead of the pack and leave our rivals in their platforms dust! So, saddle up and join in the race to victory!

Our Wabash, IN, research site showcases 70 percent of our Enlist E3® portfolio in RMs ranging from 1.6 to 3.9, Shown here, planted April 27, is the new DSR-2188E™ brand alongside other current portfolio products.
