Produce Greater Yields with W Hybrids that Suit Your Growing Season

and to help our out-of-state customers select the proper hybrids for their locality, we are 
showing below a zone chart. Remember these divisions overlap. If your farm is located near

mended that you choose a later variety than for grain.
