SOYBEAN GROWERS
CHIME FOR
HP 350
THE SOYBEAN THE OTHERS
WOULD LOVE TO BEAT.
AP 350 may be the best early
Group IV soybean in the busi
ness. Its profile reads like a dream:
Excellent field resistance to Phyto
phthora root rot, excellent shat
tering resistance, and top yield
potential. AP 350 is an excellent
companion to AP 4321. It matures
four days later than Williams 82.
It would be hard to find a better
soybean than AP 350. Call me
today for more information on
AP 350 and we can discuss the
right selections for your farm.
