If you would like us to test a sample of your grain before you combine, please bring in a full sandwich size bag of grain to get accurate grades. Grain samples can be brought to either location to be tested. Grain will be received Monday-Friday from 7:30am-4:00pm. August 3, 2020 As most of you know, Governor Evers mask mandate began Saturday, August 1st. As of, Monday August 3rd, our office building in Rio Creek will again be closed to customer/vendor traffic. Business will be conducted through the window and over the phone as much as possible. The Luxemburg office will remain open as there is less foot traffic and additional space for distancing. When picking up orders, receiving feed deliveries, or unloading grain at our facilities, please remain in your vehicle or keep a safe distance. If you have questions or concerns, please bring them to our attention. We realize there are many strong opinions regarding how to handle the mandate and COVID-19 safely. We know we can navigate this situation with grace and compassion for those who may have differing opinions and continue to work well together.
Now that the corn is tasseling, it is the perfect time to be applying fungicide to control rusts, leaf spots, and blights that can drastically reduce your yield. Our two fungicides, Trivapro and Miravis Neo, offer three modes of action, both curative and long-season protection for disease infections. These products allow the plants to dry down naturally, rather than from disease, extending the grain-fill and harvest window. Test plots have shown an 18.5-bushel increase in yield when using Trivapro. BMR varieties have particularly seen large gains in quality and tonnage when used in conjunction with a fungicide. Give one of our agronomists a call for more info on Trivapro or Miravis Neo and how they can work on your farm! We are always looking for hard-working, dedicated people to add to our team!
