The WinField® United
BioVerified™ Designation
BioVerified™ Designation
The biological crop input category has exploded in recent years. While the segment holds exciting promise, it can be difficult to navigate the crowded market and know which products out of the thousands will work.
The WinField United BioVerified designation was created to help you sort through the options and jump straight to a short list of products selected based on reliable product research and data. We test, we learn, and we figure out what works so farmers don’t have to spend their limited seasons sorting it out on their own.
The List
Products With The WinField United BioVerified Designation
CORN
COTTON
SOYBEANS
Dash and Voyagro alone didn't give a yield bump, but together we got a nice response.
Ascend ST3®
We used Ascend ST3 on our soybeans this spring along with Warden CX II, Saltro, Preside Ultra, and Seed + Graphite as part of our high yielding soybean seed treatment system. We were very pleased with how it treated on the seed and the ease of application with our seed treater. It dried nicely even though this mix is on the high end of oz/unit to put on the beans. The treater drum also stayed cleaner than normal as a result this year. In the field we saw better early season root growth and larger above ground growth, as well as more consistency in size between neighboring plants. Looking forward to seeing some yield results this fall in our yield trials. I'm excited to utilize it more in the future.
Strong results with biologicals are worth sharing.
