Corn

Riddell Seed Co. is proud to offer Pride Seeds and Horizon brand corn seed to our clients.  These brands offer top performing hybrids tailored to your farms specific corn production needs whether you are looking for a high yielding grain hybrid, top end silage performance, or grazing corn options.  We continuously evaluate the latest grain hybrids on our own farm to ensure we are selling the hybrids fit for our area. 

Our picks for 2024:

Grain Corn – Pride A3979G2 RIB – 

this 72-day grain hybrid has yielded well above any other variety we grew the last three seasons. With 150 bu/ac plus yields under dry growing conditions the performance of A3979G2 RIB in 2024 shows it can deliver under less than ideal conditions.  This variety shows impressive yields in Manitoba Corn Committee independent trials with higher yields than many much longer season hybrids.  A3979G2 RIB will get you harvesting early – why deal with excess drying costs you can avoid.  A3979G2 RIB is an excellent variety for harvest management with good dry down and the heaviest test weight we have seen on our farm.  Book early – this is a very popular line growers go back to once grown on their farms. 

Mid Season Silage – AS1028RR EDF –

This silage specific hybrid from Pride with the Easily Digestible Fibre (EDF) trait will get your silage harvest started early.  This variety will produce the big silage tonnage you need with great feed value as well.  Don’t settle for growing a grain corn variety that can’t deliver the silage tonnage and quality you need.  This variety tested near the top of Manitoba Corn Committee trials at all 2024 testing sites.
