Meet the Team > Crop Protection The weed spectrum that we have today has forced us to develop a complex plan of action to control our target species. Layering multiple modes of action is the most effective way to control our problematic weeds. Not all modes of action and chemistries can be safely blended together without losing their efficacy or gelling in the tank mix. When applied, some herbicides mixed without the proper surfactant or adjuvant can be completely ineffective. Therefore, partnering with a Superior Ag field agronomist you can develop a safe and effective crop protection plan, from an ever changing list of herbicides. When you select different hybrids and varieties, specific to your acres and management practices, you spread risk and mitigate the potential for loss. Before ever being planted, we know that every product has different strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, some products in a no-till situation have a completely different set of potential obstacles, than if they were placed in conventional tilled soil. One way to help you make this important decision is working with our Agronomists who have access to the WinField® United Characterization Charts (CHT Chart). This tech tool visually compares the performance of hybrids from different seed companies based on specific environmental conditions and management variables such as disease resistance, fungicide response, soil type, crop rotation and planting population. By using the insights from the CHT Chart, we essentially get a peek at the playbook before the big game. These insights will allow you to make the best in-season adjustments during the growing season, to maximize the profit potential of your operation. Seed Environmental conditions play an extreme role in hybrid performance, which many of these conditions you do not have control over. Selecting the right seed product is the most impactful decision that you can control. Making these decisions according to the specific conditions found on your farm is essential. Successful seed selection comes down to marrying the right products with the right acres and management practices. By not utilizing the technology and insights in the seed industry today, you could be limiting your yield potential before you even pull the planter out of the shed. Superior Ag is fortunate to have a WinField United Vision Plot located right in the heart of our territory, which provides us with local corn and soybean yield results, as well as insights into a wide variety of agronomic practices to farmers in southern Indiana. By having access to all of the top national brands in the seed industry, we are not limited to only a specific brand’s portfolio. The hybrids and varieties we offer come from the best companies in the industry. Superior Ag has profoundly more research plots and trials than any other dealer in our cooperative footprint to help identify the specific product to match your acre and practices. We don’t play favorites—if it doesn’t work for you, it doesn’t work for us.
