A STRONG COMMITMENT
TO CORN EXCELLENCE
The Prairie Brand name is widely known throughout
the industry as a source of superior quality and elite
seed performance. It is with a rich history of providing
you with the best seed value available that Prairie
Brand Seed presents a 2008 corn line-up second
to none!
The 2008 Prairie Brand corn line-up features our
largest new product release ever. We are offering
12 new hybrid families from 80 to 115 day
maturity with 26 new trait options available. Our
independence allows Prairie Brand Seed to
introduce hybrids with the trait options you need
including VecTran™ Technology Triple stacks,
Processor Preferred hybrids, Herculex traits and
silage specific hybrids.
Prairie Brand Seed’s independence allows us to
relentlessly pursue the most advanced corn
technology in the industry. We will test these
products thoroughly and then offer you only the best
hybrids assured to maximize profit on your farm.
As you can see I am excited about our 2008 hybrid
corn line-up. I am also always interested to hear
from you how Prairie Brand Seed hybrids perform
on your farm.

Soybean Research
A TRADITION OF DELIVERING
MAXIMUM VALUE
High Grower Satisfaction
Prairie Brand Soybeans have a rich history of providing
outstanding performance and high grower satisfaction.
As we look to build on that history, Prairie Brand Seed is
raising the performance bar with several new products for
2008. Within this new group are key products that are built
for tremendous yield potential across a wide range of
growing conditions. The yield barrier on soybeans with
SCN resistance has been shattered, and some of the
highest yielding lines in the industry carry SCN resistance
and can be found in the Prairie Brand soybean line-up. We are excited
to bring you the most advanced genetics in the industry, and are certain
you will be pleased with
the performance of Prairie Brand Soybeans on your farm.
Along with our new 2008 releases, Prairie Brand Seed is
introducing a new generation of Vistive™ soybeans. Our
well-rounded line-up of Vistive™ soybeans offers products with
the agronomics and yield to help growers maximize the
market demand premiums offered by raising Vistive™.
Expanded Research Effort
In an effort to give our customers the best information
on the performance of our products, we enter our soybeans
in various state yield trials and F.I.R.S.T. trials. In addition,
a large investment was put into hundreds of dealer and
grower plots throughout our marketing area. To expand
our product research effort, replicated trials have been
strategically placed. These replicated trials are referred to
as P.E.T. (Prairie Elite Testing). P.E.T. trials are conducted
with the support of an independent testing consultant with
years of experience providing reliable test data. This
expanded research effort enhances our ability to make the
best product recommendations for your individual farms.
We want to know how Prairie
Brand products perform for you. Send your questions or
