WC Iowa | I guess things can change alot 10 miles south. So far we have been through 500 acres and 5 pioneer numbers including that number, and havent seen monitor hit 200 yet (235bpa APH farms doing 160). Meanwhile the vt3 corn around is standing running 50bpa above P and ours is flat flat flat harvested 120 acres one direction some across the row. And no its not fertility, tillage, fungicide, herbicide, or corn on corn, because we have compared all those variables with 10 neighbors who are ANGRY.
Rep has been out to our place twice now and just hops the fence to the next neighbor to get another earfull. Most upsetting thing is most these guys are 20yr LOYAL 100% Pioneer customers (including ourselves) and only asking for a check to pay for reels, rollacones, ect to pick it off the dirt and they will do nothing. $15/bag check back on one years seed purchase is not much to ask for. Would be shocked if Pioneer sells half of what they did in this area next year due to how they are handling this. Picture is of 0993 and 1142 side by side and the 1365 isnt much better. Second picture is 0993 and neighbors brand x in background standing
