I’M PICKING LOW RISK HYBRIDS FOR 1993 By Bill Camerer I'm Bill Camerer, Doebler's research director. It took a ton of computer data to verify best low risk buys for 1993. Here are my top picks for 1993 as advertised. But it wasn't easy. Competition was tough. And maybe I was too conservative. I looked for "low risk" hybrids, ones that are widely adapted and have shelled big year after year. Some hybrids I named twice. As an early corn in late midseason country for instance and again as my early mid pick. But also consider these risk reducers: Plant at least four hybrids. Limit acres of your first time hybrids to 15 or 20%. Only buy hybrids that fit your maturity range. Stagger maturities to reduce weather risks.
