PERFORMANCE
That’s What Really Counts
It's a good reason to buy O's Gold hybrid seed corn. You can count on total
performance from the best yielding hybrids for your fields.
In the spring, O's Gold hybrids have high germination and seedling vigor.
During the summer and fall, they show excellent standability with high
resistance to stalk rot. And, good ear retention throughout the growing
season makes sure your profits don't end up on the ground. At harvest
time, fast drydown lowers your fuel bills for the grain dryer.
Look to your O's Gold dealer when planning this year's corn crop. He's a
farmer just like you and he knows his seed corn. Plus, he'll tell you all
about the many valuable premiums and exciting 1979 winter cruise that O's
Gold has for you.
