WE'RE GOING BACK TO OUR ROOTS
We’re returning NC+ to the West. Who we are. Where we’ve come from. What we stand for. As part of that action, we’re re-introducing the NC+ system for numbering corn hybrids. We’ve gone into the archives. We’ve spoken with past NC+ product managers and salesmen. The result is the number system NC+ was built on. To be clear: the existing, consistent-performing hybrids and varieties you know will not change. But from this point forward, we’re going back to the roots of NC+.
Here are the maturity ranges for our new hybrid numbering system:
1001-1999: RM 93 and below
2000-2999: RM 94-97
3000-3999: RM 98-101
4000-4999: RM 102-105
5000-5999: RM 106-109
6000-6999: RM 110-113
7000-7999: RM 114-117
8000-8999: RM 118 and above
Large robust plant with large girthy ears. Nice grain quality with good husk coverage, and ear mold tolerance. 18-88 has good consistency across years, soil types and yield levels. Solid disease package with good southern rust tolerance. Very good heat and drought tolerance for southern movement. Good silage tonnage with staygreen for extended harvest window. Trecepta brings better earworm control.

NEW BEANS THAT MAY RING A BELL
We’re taking soybeans back to a familiar place as well. We’re re-introducing the NC+ system for numbering soybean varieties. The existing, consistent-performing varieties you know will not change. But from this point forward, new varieties will feature the trait initial after the maturity number. It's all part of an effort to return to the NC+ you remember.
F2252 is a medium-tall variety which leans on the taller side with very good standability and great pod height to ensure all seeds go in the combine. It contains the Rps1c Phytophthora Root Rot gene with very good field tolerance. This variety has excellent drought and stress tolerance and is the top choice for variable fields and soil types. A solid defense is made up of very good tolerance to Iron Deficiency Chlorosis, Sclerotinia White Mold, Sudden Death Syndrome and Brown Stem Rot.
