    Because every farm
is different , we develop
different alfalfa varieties .
Your farm is different from that of
your neighbor; different soil
types, perhaps, or different
disease and insect problems.
And that may be the best reason
yet for using Pioneer® brand
alfalfa seed in your individual
alfalfa management program.
Thanks to our large and
continuing alfalfa research effort,
you have a number of different
varieties to choose from. There’s
one that will fit your farm better
than any other variety you can
buy; and that’s the one you
should be planting to maximize
your long-term alfalfa yields.
Which one? Well, your Pioneer
sales representative will be glad
to match one of these varieties to
your farm conditions and help
you start getting more alfalfa
from every field on your farm. So
give him a call. He’s right down
the road.

Your best start.
526
As proven in tests, 526 is one of the most
winterhardy varieties on the market. It also
features outstanding resistance to Bacterial Wilt
and good resistance to Fusarium Wilt. 526
produces impressive yields throughout this area
and, since the first cutting is a bit later than
with 531 or 532, the harvest load can be
easily spread.
531
With its ability to tolerate Anthracnose
infestations and fight off Fusarium Wilt and
Bacterial Wilt, 531 is quickly becoming a favorite
in areas where these diseases are a problem. It
produces a first cutting early and the fine
stemmed, leafy plants bounce back fast after
harvest providing ton after ton of high
quality forage.
532
532 establishes a stand quickly and its fast
regrowth can mean an extra cutting each
season. Strong resistance to Bacterial Wilt and
Fusarium Wilt, along with very good field
tolerance against Phytophthora Root Rot, all go
into making 532 one tough, winterhardy alfalfa
variety.
