Consistent performance that gives you
a bigger cut of the earnings.
That’s what you need today. Hybrids
you can count on for high earnings
year after year.
And that’s why so many farmers build
their corn programs around Funk’s
G-Hybrids. They know they can count
on consistent performance, under a
variety of stresses, through good years
and bad.
