Proseed is one of the companies with field trials at Grand Farm. “We have two corn blocks, a soybean block, and a sunflower block,” said Karmen Hardy, agronomist. The corn plot is testing planting depths and various plant populations in a flex hybrid versus a non-flex hybrid. Biological seed treatments are also being evaluated. The sunflower plots did see too much rain, which will impact results. “Unfortunately, that side of the plot got a little wet this spring so we had a few holes, but it’s still something for us to look at and evaluate.”
