During the 2010 growing year, we created custom CropFax reports for top seed recommendations at a state level and then compared yield results for those varieties selected to state averages for the growing year.  States selected for the study are from the corn and soybean growing belt and include: Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

In all cases the CropFax recommended varieties outperformed the state yield averages under both standard and adverse growing conditions.

A custom CropFax report generated for your local growing conditions should provide you with hybrid variety choices that perform better than average for your growing conditions.  There are no promises in farming, only intelligent choices that improve the likelihood for higher yields.
