2 Why We Sell Corn Our goal at Ag Performance is to offer growers innovative financial and agronomic services. Our sales team has been trained to help you select the right products you need for maximum return from your acres. Through careful analysis of your agronomy needs, we can help you hand-pick the hybrids that will perform best in each field, and recommend an agronomy program custom designed for you. Often times hybrids are sold based on agronomy recommendations such as stalk and root quality, seedling vigor and soil type. While those are all important,we also combine that knowledge and take it to the next level: nutrients. In order for these impressive hybrids to reach their maximum potential, they need the proper nutrition at the appropriate times. For example, Stalk Rot and Crown Rot are the result of Potassium deficiencies. In this situation, the stalk is actually cannibalized by the ear because the ear will get the Potassium first. At Ag Performance we have found ways to actually prevent this from happening. Many years have been spent researching how plants use the nutrients and minerals in the soil, and we know that all plants require the same mineral elements, but we can help you tailor those needs based on the crop and variety chosen, climate and soil characteristics. Biotech hybrids are designed to protect against insect damage from Corn Rootworm and Corn Borer. However, over time the effectiveness of these Biotech hybrids have diminished to a point where 30% damage has been found from Corn Rootworm. Ag Performance has a full line of Corn hybrids selected from the best male and female (germplasm) possible to provide race-horse hybrids that deliver the greatest yield potential when combined with our unique and effective insecticide package to protect your crop and keep it clean of these pests. Compare the difference for yourself. When you match up the Corn Program to a Triple-Stack or SmartStax Corn Program you will see a $56. cost advantage with the Program! That means GMO hybrids need to out yield our hybrids by over 1 bushels/acre (based on $3.00/bu. corn) JUST to compete!

28 Ag Performance is a full service agricultural organization. We support all your growing needs from chemicals to foliars and everything in between! Agronomy Consulting Good solid agronomic practices result in high-end potential yields for all hybrids. At Ag Performance, we believe defining the smallest area of grid samples a farmer can afford, is the best starting point (preferably no larger that 2.5 acre grids). These samples must include testing the macro nutrients with a base saturation at each geo reference point. These samples are used to develop spread maps that will show where the nutrients are needed in the fields. An analysis of the farmer s machinery line-up helps us determine what method is most appropriate for placement of the product in the soil, so it does not tie up nutrients. Most tie-ups in the soil are due to low ph, high Magnesium, high ph and residual roundup or just not enough nutrients in the soil profile. A lot of times these recommendations may change due to tissue samples, economic conditions and the goals a farmer wishes to obtain. Walking the fields throughout the growing season is necessary to determine if there are possible nutrient deficiencies that have developed. At the end of the season, when yield data is compiled, we overlap all other maps to help improve next year s yields and net return.
