Are your wheat profits
getting lost at the mill?
You’ve just harvested your wheat crop and
the yields look pretty good. Looks like you’ll
even make enough to pay your taxes. Then you
haul the grain to the mill. It’s weighed. And you
find out your test weights are under 58 Ib/bu.
SO instead of getting full profit, you lose 8t
for every bushel you produce. Even more if your
test weights are substantially under 58 Ib/bu.
So much for paying off the taxes.
Maximize your profits with
unmatched test weights.
With Hoffman 89, you’ll get every penny
from your wheat crop. In three-year trials con
ducted by Penn State and the University of
Maryland, Hoffman 89 weighed in with the top
test weight across all locations.
Best of all, it produced test weights of 58
Ib/bu or more every single time, topping the
mean test weight by at least 4%.
Get superior test weights
without sacrificing yield.
But superior test weights are only half the
story with Hoffman 89. You’ll also get topend
yields that will have you smiling all the way to
the bank.
Loss calculations based on $3.00 per bushel of #2 wheat with a testweight discount of 84 per bushel. ,

BULL 25,000.
Its 98 bu/A average, for example, produced
a 5% advantage over the mean yield of 92.9 bu/A
in Lancaster County trials. At $3.00 per bushel,
you'd make $15.30 more per acre using
Hoffman 89.
Winter hardiness boosts
plant population.
Hoffman 89 features excellent winter
hardiness to improve percent stand come spring.
It also tillers better than many varieties to
increase overall plant population. Superior
standability and Powdery Mildew tolerance
ensure maximum yield potential for added
profitability.
