Dairyland Seed introduces new class of soybeans for 2025

Date:06-20-2024

Dairyland Seed unveiled 18 new Enlist E3^® soybean varieties for the 2025 growing season, featuring elite genetics and improved agronomics from Corteva Agriscience.

Rod Moran, Regional Agronomist and Soybean Leader, says Dairyland Seed continues to be a leader in top-producing soybeans and adds, ″The 2025 class of varieties is the strongest E3 class we’ve offered. This expansion of 18 new Enlist E3^® soybeans represents a significant step forward in our commitment to providing growers with top-notch genetics for yield and crop protection.″

Among the many benefits of the Dairyland Seed 2025 Enlist E3 soybean class, one of the biggest is yield. Thanks to the advanced genetics program at Corteva Agriscience, growers will enjoy a yield bump on these products compared with existing products in the same maturity.

″Through rigorous investment, testing, and breeding programs, we’ve seen impressive increases in yields, surpassing traditional expectations. ″IMPACT™ (Intensively Managed Product Advancement, Characterization, and Testing) plot trials yielded a 1.9 bushels per acre advantage within our footprint, and we’ve seen Corteva field trials with as much as four to five bushels per acre increase in some locations. That’s a tremendous testament to our chase of genetic gain within the germplasm,″ Moran adds.

Pests continue to be bothersome, and current growing conditions are demanding modern solutions.

The new Enlist E3 soybean class with Corteva-exclusive genetics will provide excellent agronomic durability. With products significantly enhancing growers’ ability to combat iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) and comprehensive improvements against white mold, brown stem rot, sudden death syndrome, and frog eye leaf spot, Dairyland Seed growers have much to be excited for.

″Our improvements to combat soybean cyst nematodes are also impressive. Adding four new Peking products to the portfolio increases growers’ ability to implement best management practices to drive improved yield and sustainability of the technology.″ added Moran.

Dairyland Seed continues to make sure diversity and availability in our lineup remains a top priority. To make sure this new class is available to as many farmers as are interested, the Agronomy Team selected a broad range of maturities from 0.04 - 4.0 and forecasted ample supply.

Growers will have options for both offensive and defensive products to fit their operations.

″We’ve ensured that there’s at least one new product in every half RM group, catering to the specific needs of growers across different regions and growing conditions. From early to late maturity, we’ve got growers covered,″ emphasized Moran.

Introducing the 2024 class of Enlist E3^® soybeans marks a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to innovation and sustainability in agriculture.

Moran added, ″While we’re excited about the potential of these new soybeans, we also recognize the storied importance of our historical lineup. Our committed customers and heritage products have laid the foundation for our success, and we remain dedicated to providing growers with a diverse portfolio of high-quality soybeans.″
