    Who won the showdown between Pioneer,
Funks, DeKalb and Jacques?
Showdowns aren’t just at the OK Corral. This one took place
at 517 locations throughout the corn belt. Look what happened!
Haven’t you always wanted to see how
the major hybrid corn varieties com
pared?
That’s what Jacques has done again this
fall in 517 locations all across the corn belt.
Major competitive varieties were planted
alongside Jacques varieties and harvested
for the whole world to see.
What’s even more important all the
results are published whether we won or
lost. Who else runs corn trials where they
put their hybrids up against the strongest
competitors and then tell when they lose?
But isn’t that what you need for a true test
of hybrids?
Look at the way farmers run our plots?
They plant field length rows, they combine
just like you do, corn is weighed and
Jacqpes
... Just say Jakes
moisture tested as neighbors and com
petitive seed dealers watch. So you know the
results have to be right.
What happened in the tests? The chart at
the right tells the story. They show how well
Jacques varieties did against Pioneer, Funks
and DeKalb. All the results aren’t in yet but
when they are we’ll show you who won and
lost in the showdown for your area.
What better information can you use in
evaluating this past tough year? What better
way can you find the ideas on the hybrids
you need to consider adding for next year?
So here are the first shots in the
showdown. In a few more weeks all the
results will be in and our new 1980Yieldbook
will be ready. See your Jacques Dealer for a
copy or send in the coupon and we’ll mail
you a free copy. Do it right away.
