How many bushels are you shooting for? We had one of our fields average 75.4 bushels last year and one of our customers had a field run over 86 bushels with parts of the field showing over 100 bushels! I mention those numbers not to boast, but to tell you if we can do it then you certainly can too. The genetics in our Hefty Brand soybean lineup have 100 bushel potential and beyond, and our agronomy staff has the answers youre looking for to increase your yields significantly this year. So shoot for your best yields ever this year and count on Hefty Brand Soybeans to perform in your fields.

When soybean prices are high, picking great-yielding varieties is more important than ever if you want to maximize your profit. Heres the problem, though: Every year is different, and most soybean varieties are 2 years old or less. How can you really find the best products on the market? First, we suggest planting at least 3 or 4 different varieties on the farm and matching those beans to your different soil types, field conditions, tillage practices, and planting dates. Then, work with a company and agronomists you can trust. There are plenty of other good companies and people out there, but I love our agronomy staff, and Darren and I personally spend a tremendous amount of time with them talking about how to raise better soybeans. Our goal is always for you to get the best yields and earn the most possible income. Ive been so excited by all the reports of super high yields in full fields from farmers who planted Hefty Brand Soybeans over the last couple of years. Even on our farm, we had 2 different Hefty beans top 70 bushels per acre in full fields in 2010! While many farmers talk about soybean yields that have leveled off, I feel good that many of our customers continue to successfully climb the yield ladder. Hopefully, we can help you achieve your goals, too, with Hefty Brand Soybeans!

BENEFITS OF NEW SEED


Convenience
Highest quality and highest yielding product vs. bin-run Meets quality standards of seed company Professionally handled and rigorously tested Dramatically reduces splits and foreign matter Ensures varietal purity Germination tests to ensure peace of mind Weed-free Reliable seed supply in many maturities Access to the most elite germplasm

Economics of New Seed vs. Bin-Run

Income lost by not selling as commodity grain (e.g. 1 bushel of bin-run seed multiplied by the price of a soybean bushel) Average loss of ~ 10-15% cleanout at harvest for bin-run seed Handling and transportation costs for bin-run (approx. $.35-$.75/bushel) Bin-run planting rates are generally 15% higher than new certified seed New seed yields an average of 1.8 bushel/acre more than bin-run (University yield trials range from 1.2-5.9 bushel/acre)

Limited Warranty Benefits

Dealer agronomic support before and after the sale Risk management benefits of Roundup Rewards (over $600 million paid to growers since 1997)

New Innovations

Royalties provide research and development of new traits and higher yielding germplasm Monsanto invests over $700 million per year on research and development Monsanto is 100% committed to agriculture New trait introductions 7- 9 years for commercialization $50-$100 million in total costs for a new biotech trait Seed companies and Monsanto are committed to our customers success

New variety for you with 3 years of big yields in the testing program. Only weakness is the lack of a Phytophthora gene, so use this one on well-drained fields or in a blend. Fantastic bean even in higher pH environments! You wont find a better bean at handling IDC hotspots. Great top-end yield potential in your best ground, too. Top-end yielder that fits nearly everywhere this maturity is planted. Blew away the competition in the IDC trials. Responds to higher management techniques. Good plant width fills rows and fills combines, too. This one wont be in stock long. It has plot-topping yields and great defense as well. Above average IDC with the best Phytophthora protection gene, Rps 3A. Big Yielder! This bean loves to run west. Ideally suited for ND and SD. Responds very well to fertility and seed treatments. Great fit for high yields, high pH tolerance, and even on the Soybean Cyst Nematode ground! With yield levels that have topped plots from Central SD to Wisconsin, the combination of SCN/IDC protection gets even more attention. Great-looking bean with yields to match. Plant this one right in front of your house and brag all year long. Best Phytophthora protection in the lineup. 09Y11 fits from central MN and all the way west. Good yielder with great standability.

Visually attractive bean as well. Awesome yields! Dominated nearly every trial with excellent IDC tolerance and fantastic yields. If you dont have soybean cyst nematode, this is the bean you should be planting. Great stress tolerance leads to consistent performance. Flat out yielder that loves lighter to medium soils. If SCN/IDC are not concerns, this should be one of your favorite beans at this maturity. Great one-two punch with 13Y11 for top yields. Dominant yielder in SD and Western MN. Has great PRR protection with the Rps 3A gene. Outside of that, this is a racehorse bean for your best ground. Key line at this maturity. Top yields with SCN resistance.

Where do Hefty Brand Soybeans come from?


. We buy genetics from the top breeders. Its no secret that there are only a few companies left in the industry breeding soybeans on a large scale. Most of them are owned or controlled by the major ag chemical manufacturers. As one of the nations ten largest ag chemical retailers, we have access to the best soybean lines from their elite germplasm.

Why is there a price difference from other brands?

- Hefty Brand Soybeans are often less expensive than other brands due to the intense cost management of a family-owned company. All seed companies have expenses to get seed produced, processed, and into your hands. Heftys contracts production through local growers, has three seed cleaning facilities, and minimizes trucking expense by doing it all in the areas where the seed will be used. The result is a lower cost to you.

LibertyLink soybeans with Ignite herbicide enables growers to effectively avoid or manage weed resistance as the only nonselective alternative to glyphosate-tolerant systems. LibertyLink soybean varieties combine elite genetics and excellent crop safety with built-in tolerance to the powerful, postemergence weed control of Ignite. High-yielding LibertyLink soybean varieties are available in a range of maturities. Ignite herbicide applied over the top of LibertyLink soybean varieties provides cost-effective, nonselective postemergence control of broadleaf and grass weeds, including weeds resistant to glyphosate and multiple herbicide classes.

HIGH QUALITY AND YIELD STARTS WITH SUPERIOR PRODUCTION PRACTICES.


Outstanding genetics mean higher yields. Theres no secret about that, and we can guarantee you Hefty Brand Soybeans include the great genetics youre looking for, but if many seed companies have similar genetics, why should you buy Hefty Beans vs. anyone elses? Seed quality is our answer. Heres how we can say that. Because we strive to give you the very best seed quality available on the market, we have the most restrictive seed grower contract that we know of in the industry. We require our seed growers to take better care of our production seed, so we believe you end up with a more nutrient-dense and vigorous seed. Here are just a few of those steps. Fertility Our seed growers soil test and fertilize soybeans for higher yields and quality. Did you know that 60 bushel soybeans remove approximately 134 pounds of K2O (potassium) and 68 pounds of phosphate from the soil? By fertilizing with lots of P, K, and micronutrients, the seed we produce typically has more test weight, greater size, and better vigor. Seed Treatment Our growers use fungicide, insecticide, inoculant, and QuickRoots on almost all our seed, so it has more nutrients and less disease throughout the year. Soil Applied Residual Herbicide Yes, we know our growers can control weeds with Roundup or Ignite, but we believe in having season-long, weed-free fields. It usually means better yields and more seed for us, and bigger, more productive seed for you. Aggressively Fight Insects We require insecticide applications at very low threshold levels when bean leaf beetles and soybean aphids are present. These insects carry disease, and if they are left to feed on the soybeans, you may end up with seed that has disease in the bag. We want to do everything we can to prevent that. Plant Health Fungicide use at the R2 to R3 stage (full flower to first pod) is beneficial for stopping diseases and improving yields. Because our growers are REQUIRED to spray, youll find our seed fields less likely to contain white mold, cercospora, frog eye leaf spot, septoria brown spot, and more. Fungicide use makes seed quality better.
