Using Asgrow soybean technology along with high-yield management practices, 51 farmers have been named winners in the 2015 Asgrow Yield Contest.

Thirteen of the winners exceeded 100 bushels per acre, including the top yield of 134.5 bushels/acre by John Rigdon of Jarrettsville, Maryland, who planted Asgrow AG3832 Brand.

“High yields depend on paying attention to every little detail, from the seed you plant to setting your combine at harvest,” Rigdon said. “I always consider Asgrow products to be at the forefront of soybean genetics with their high yield potential and disease resistance.”

Other producers who surpassed the 100-bushel threshold were:

Winning entries represented 19 different states.

Asgrow debuted its first national yield contest in 2012 in an effort to encourage soybean producers to challenge their peers in pushing yield limits. The contest also provides farmers the opportunity to learn more about the latest seed technologies and production practices, which contribute to overall advances for farmers across the country.
