How to limit crop risk by Willard Jones I'm Willard Jones, Doebler’s sales manager, taking the conservative approach. I’m conservative when it comes to investing money. Or buying seed corn. So I buy certificates of deposit. And I think real estate for a long term investment. It’s a matter of limiting my risk. Same principle holds for seed corn. Best low risk buys, in my mind, are hybrids that always finish among the leaders. In wet weather or dry. Hot weather or cold. On deep or shallow soils. Like Doebler’s Extra Performance hybrids with mile long printouts of test results made right here in the East. And never under estimate old favorites like Doebler 75X. That old super champ is driving the competition crazy. Here are my picks. Mostly established stars. TRY THESE DOEBLER'S HYBRIDS Low risk buys for 1991 DOEBLER 84XP, 118 days.
