Field Forged Series lineup features 26 total hybrids, including 10 new NK corn hybrids and 4 new Enogen corn hybrids, and 20 new NK soybean varieties
NK Seeds has released the first-ever Field Forged Series of top-performing corn and soybeans. Now available for the 2022 growing season from retailers across the US, this combination of proven performers and elite newcomers represents the best in seed innovation from Syngenta Seeds’ leading research and development engine.
The inaugural Field Forged Series lineup features 26 total hybrids, including 10 new NK corn hybrids and 4 new Enogen corn hybrids, and 20 new NK soybean varieties, each carefully evaluated and hand-selected for top performance.
With challenges in agriculture constantly evolving, Syngenta Seeds is accelerating innovation to keep farms running, structuring the organisation’s entire R&D process around the farmer. The company’s innovations include the Stalk Crusher, a unique sensor-based technology that’s delivering better-standing hybrids, and investments in trait introgression that are empowering breeders to pair the newest traits with the strongest genetics, faster than ever.
In NK corn, Syngenta Seeds R&D has powered a portfolio of hybrids that reflect both yield and agronomic excellence. Each Field Forged hybrid had to meet a number of strict requirements to be included in the launch class, including strong root rot resistance, stalk strength, tolerance of critical diseases and broad adaptation.
The new NK hybrids also offer industry-leading trait choice, with Agrisure Duracade, Agrisure Viptera and Agrisure Artesian traits to help farmers meet a variety of needs in their fields. Similarly, the lineup of Field Forged soybean varieties features a diverse selection of the latest in-demand traits, including both proprietary Enlist E3 soybean and proprietary XtendFlex soybean varieties.
