Exciting news to share! It is with great pleasure that we announce the partnership between AF Seeds and Nutrien Ag Solutions. The collaboration we established with Channel Seeds eight years ago served as the foundation for our growth and development into the thriving company we are today. As we continued to grow and evolve, we sought a partner who shares our expanding vision, and we have found an ideal fit in Nutrien. We are proud to offer an expanded array of seed brands, including Dekalb/Asgrow, Dyna-Gro, Brevant, and NK, and we can now provide chemical and fertilizer inputs and application through our partner sites in Percival and Westboro.

We have some more incredibly exciting news to share - the expansion of our test plot! As many of you are aware, we have always been committed to managing and growing the 40-acre research plot behind our seed shed. We are proud to have been published for our multi-year population and fungicide trials, and it remains one of our top achievements. With Nutrien Ag Solutions, who share our passion for research and local knowledge for our customers, we are thrilled to announce the complete overhaul and expansion of our plot. While still located within the same 40-acre footprint, the plot has been redesigned to include trials extending beyond seed into foliar applications, profitability, cutting-edge genetics, and more - a lot more. Please stay tuned for all the exciting updates on our journey with our new partners at Nutrien Ag Solutions. It's going to be an incredible summer in the plot! Thanks again for your support.

We are now carrying WearParts Tillage Tools products. They are a great Nebraska-based company that has been creating high wear seed disc openers that are similarly priced to OEM, but with heavy duty performance.
We have both HD and Regular in stock. If you're looking at changing them out this year, stop by to see the difference in person.

Always a fun morning with Ollie helping out! 🤪

In the world of 117 day corn, Channel has knocked it out of the park with the new 217-76 this year! Ears are 20 around and 40 long. Compare that to the Pioneer 1563AM just a few rows down at 18 around and 36 long. Both had fungicide and insecticide and planted at 32k.

Take a look at these 2.1RM soybeans - on the left was planted May 4th and the right was planted June 7th. Timing, insecticide and fungicide were key considerations this year.

This is the 4th year we've done our 38 acre research plot and the first year we've done split-date planting on our soybeans. There is so much to show around the plot - but the biggest visual difference so far are these 2.1 beans. The early planted (left side) set got hit hard by Japanese Beatles earlier and more so than any other maturity group in the plot.

This Thursday, Sept. 6 is our annual Field Day! We're proud to share our third year of 40 acre repetitive corn and soybean plots. These local plots give a hands-on experience that a seed guide can't match. Look at population, spacing, fungicide and more.

Stop by anytime during the day for a tour!
