NC+ Brand
The global demand on agriculture has never been greater.
The demand to produce even more food. The demand for food processing and fuel alternatives. NC+ has the right products…and the right people…to support growers who demand the best seed options to maximize yields and minimize risk on every acre.
The right places.
NC+ has access to one of the broadest germplasm bases in the world. Having the ability to source germplasm from around the globe results in the development of better seed. For example, germplasm from tropical areas may possess desirable disease traits that can then be incorporated into seed products developed for planting on your acres.
“Our germplasm sourcing is a global program involving numerous suppliers around the world. This system is further supported by sophisticated selection and positioning programs to verify that the NC+ products made available to you will maximize your return on investment through increased yields and reduced risk.”
Dr. Rick Batty, Director of Research and Development, Channel Bio Corp.
The right combinations.
Utilizing a component approach that takes full advantage of all the latest technologies, NC+ brings trait and performance characteristics together in combinations no other seed company can deliver.
“Our herbicide-tolerant seed products allow the use of herbicides over the top of crops, simplifying production and offering the broadest spectrum weed control available. Our insect-resistant products reduce the need for chemical pesticides. Our yield-enhancing genetics incorporate specific traits to produce higher yields through improved stress tolerance, vigor and nutrient use. Output trait benefits include products that offer a better value in food processing and feed nutrition, as well as renewable fuel uses.”
Doug Gloystein, General Manager, NC+
The right information.
Faster product cycle times…traits and stacks…multiple seed treatment options…for a grower it can get to be overwhelming.
“Seed positioning is our strength. Our seed professionals see themselves as advisors, not order takers. What makes us different is our willingness to put boots on the farm…to learn all about the needs of growers…to answer all of their questions…then make recommendations about which seed products will perform best on their acres. What we employ is local area knowledge. What we deliver is on-the-farm service. Bottom line—we’re out to build long-term relationships, not just make a couple of quick sales.”
Dave Stamp, Sales Manager, NC+
The right support.
Growers benefit from access to:
- In-depth characteristics and product descriptions that detail why the seed recommendations made in consultation with NC+ representatives will generate greater yields.
- Area-specific product recommendations to help them make informed decisions about what to plant in their fields.
- Pricing program opportunities that work to deliver a better bottom line return on their seed investment dollars.
“The more growers know about seed components and how we put them together, the more value they’ll get from their seed investment. Everything we offer—from seed products to support programs—is geared toward improving the production profitability on more grower acres year after year. The way we look at it, the better job we do to help you grow your business the more we grow ours.”
Dr. Bruce Burger, Product Manager, NC+
The right time.
Not that long ago, the life cycle of a typical seed product was around eight years. Today, that life cycle spans only three or four. Just because everything is moving at seed speed doesn’t mean product quality and testing is left in the dust.
“It's all about seed speed today. It's about getting improved genetics with advanced technology traits into grower hands as early as possible, so they can continue to generate even greater yields and an even better bottom line from one year to the next.”
Doug Gloystein, General Manager, NC+
“Because we have so many scientific and technologically advanced resources available to us, NC+ products are better tested today than ever before, even though we're working with much more germplasm, a lot more components and a lot more trait combinations. One grower advantage is trust…trust in knowing that we’ve done everything within our power to safeguard the grower’s seed investment.”
