Reviewing the corn
summaries
Corn & Soybean Digest magazine, with sponsorship from Bayer
CropScience, is bringing you the regional summaries of the final corn,
soybean and silage data from the field. Summaries for several of the
FIRST Harvest corn plots are listed by region below along with the site
yield averages for that region. The remaining corn summaries will be
included in the final Harvest Report newsletter next week. The 2008 Corn
Edition Supplement with all of this year's data was mailed with the late
November issue of Corn & Soybean Digest magazine.
To view the full reports for corn, soybeans or silage with the listing
of each hybrid visit www.firstseedtests.com. Oil and
protein data has recently been added to the individual soybean reports.
The 2008 Soybean Edition Supplement will be mailed with the December
issue of the magazine.
To find out more about how the harvest went, listen to the audio reports
posted on the Web site. Audio interviews with the FIRST farm managers
were updated weekly on the Web site during the last seven weeks of
harvest. Direct links are listed for the FIRST audio interviews, as well
as the FIRST videos, which explain more about the FIRST Seed Testing
program.

 As the 2008 harvest comes to a conclusion, growers
reflect on their choices for this season and look toward next
year.

you’ve got to be aggressive if you want to get results.
Poncho® seed-applied insecticide hits early season pests
harder, protecting your corn and helping increase vigor, stands and
yield.
Nothing packs more punch than Poncho. To find out more, visit this Web
site.

 Soybean growers should consider the power that one layer
of seed-applied protection provides, and then think about what they can
get from the six layers of protection in the Trilex® 6000

protecting their seed investment from yield-robbing pests with the
Trilex 6000 Soybean System.
The system provides the most advanced seed-applied treatment for
soybeans, including: Trilex 2000, an in-can formulation of two powerful
fungicides, Trilex and Allegiance® seed-applied
fungicides; Yield Shield™ seed-applied biological
fungicide; Celgard® 96487; Gaucho®
seed-applied insecticide; and Pro-Ized Red Colorant in one seed
treatment.
