Enogen Corn Growers

“Probably the biggest technology right now is Enogen, because we’re located close to some of the participating plants. This is the type of technology we’ve been looking forward to for 15 to 20 years. ”

“The Enogen stewardship requirements are not bad at all. You have to plant a buffer edge around the fields, you have to clean out your planter and the combine when you’re done, but for the premium that’s involved and no price difference on the seed, it’s worth it as far as we’re concerned.”

“I decided to plant Enogen corn to give myself a little diversity. I have stuck with the Enogen product for the past two years because it doesn’t have any yield drag and allows me the freedom to market some grain differently than what I normally do with my regular co-ops.”

“We had a nice growing season. My Enogen hybrid E111B8-3000GT brand yielded up to 238 bushels per acre and I have found that the Enogen stewardship requirements have not been an issue at all.”

“Enogen stewardship is very simple to follow. It is a very user friendly, farmer friendly program. The computer systems are fairly easy to run so really it’s just a small task to grow Enogen. ”

“We were already planting Golden Harvest^® hybrids, so the transition to Enogen was quite easy. With the premium per bushel offer, the decision to plant Enogen hybrids was a no brainer.”

“This is probably our third year growing corn for ethanol. We decided to plant Enogen for the ethanol factor. Rather than depending on overseas oil, we try and raise it right here. And the 40 cent premium we got on it helps a bunch when corn’s $3.50.”
