A Winning Option for Spring Wheat
Reliability and stability are key ingredients for wheat seed, particularly if it is grown on variable soils. And having two varieties in one bag — pairing one that has a particular strength with another that has a completely different but complementary one — can help.
A WinPak® spring wheat variety from CROPLAN® seed offers a unique combination of two varieties that provides an exceptional level of stability throughout the field. WinPak varieties work together to increase yield potential by reducing risk from field variability, weather and soil conditions, and disease complexes. If you’re looking for a wheat seed option that performs well in variable conditions and under environmental pressures, here are some reasons to consider planting a WinPak variety.
Stability
There’s the value that comes with achieving the highest yield, and then there’s the value that comes with reliability and consistency. That’s where a WinPak wheat variety proves itself: We combine two products that work together to increase yield potential on tough acres while maintaining yield in higher-producing areas. Data has shown a synergistic effect that comes from having two types of seed in the bag. When one variety may not be at the top of the list in certain aspects, the other variety can compensate.
More genetics
No farmer gets excited about cleaning out the seeder and switching between varieties. Even though a farmer might want more genetics on the farm, it’s a lot of work that takes up valuable time. A WinPak variety provides two genetic backgrounds, and farmers only have to plant once.
Standability
If one seed component in a WinPak variety has a stronger standability rating than the other, it tends to bolster the second one. This nets out better than separately growing a variety with a less-desirable standability rating and another with a strong rating.
The power of two
CROPLAN currently offers one spring wheat WinPak variety, CP3888, which is a combination of CP3616 and CP3504. This WinPak variety has a number of features and benefits, including:
