Dear NorthStar Genetics Manitoba,
The RR2Y soybeans are just better-
period. The yields are higher, as
the
industry (and you guys) expecte
d.
But what is really impressive, is
the
plant vigor and the abilit
y to handle
stressful conditions.
-Roger Weinlaeder.
The main reason Oak Bluff Colony grows NorthStar
Genetics beans is because of the strong relationship
with the NorthStar Genetics dealer. I trust his
advice 100%. Sometimes I phone him everyday for
advice on varieties, planting equipment, and soils…any
information like that.

Dear Editor,
After reading the last issue I decided to grow NSC Osborne,
one of NorthStar Genetics Manitoba’s RR2Y soybean
varieties. As a Red River Valley farmer (farming 15 miles
south of Winnipeg), I know that I will have to deal with lots of
different growing conditions and you claimed that these
RR2Y’s could handle them all.
Despite the wet conditions at seeding and then no rain to
speak of after June 15th, the crop looked better from the
beginning than anything else that I grew, even though it
was seeded into rougher conditions.
Anyways, I just harvested and this NSC Osborne yielded
8.2 bushels/acre more than any RR1 that I grew this year!
I am one happy customer, thanks for spreading the word about
NorthStar Genetics Manitoba’s Roundup Ready 2 Yield.
-One Happy Producer
