Its parent seed for the Pioneer plant east of town. Seed from those fields will be used for seed production next year. They are very picky about purity in these fields. I think Pioneer even has their own combines to harvest those fields.
Interesting. We have raised seed soybeans for lots of years and some years we raised the parent seed. Our combine our bins. Interesting though.
