This man would prefer that you didn't plant Jacques alfalfas He has a profitable little sideline selling hay to dairy farmers and beef producers whose alfalfa stands didn't produce enough to get them through the winter. But he doesn't get many calls from farmers who grow Chief, Elevation or Multi-plier from Jacques. Because they produce more of their own high quality alfalfa. One reason, of course, is the genetic yield potential of Jacques alfalfa varieties. Elevation , for example, has one of the highest four-year yield averages among all varieties tested by the Universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin. But another major factor is their unequaled disease resistance. Multi-plier earned 24 out of a possible 25 points qnder the University of Wisconsin disease resistance rating system. And no variety even begins to compare to Chief for its level of resistance to Phytophthora and bacterial wilt, the two most damaging alfalfa diseases. That means Jacques alfalfas keep producing extra tons of alfalfa year after year. C 1991, Jacques Seed Company.
