There’s always a balance when it comes to planting conditions. Soil temperature, moisture, and forecast all play a role in timing decisions. Every operation weighs those factors a little differently depending on their ground and goals.

Spring rarely goes exactly as planned. Conditions change, windows shift, and every field brings something different. That’s something we see every year. This time of year is all about working with what you’re given and making the best decisions you can each day.

Planting season will be here before we know it. As you head into the 2026 crop year, what’s getting most of your attention — timing, population, hybrid selection, field conditions? Every spring brings a fresh start and a new set of decisions with each pass across the field.

Happy National Ag Day 🌾 Today we recognize the growers, families, and communities that keep agriculture moving forward. From research plots to production fields, it all starts with the people committed to growing something greater.

Grain sorghum remains a dependable option across a wide range of growing conditions. To explore available hybrids and agronomic characteristics, view our 2026 Seed Guide: 🔗 ohldeseed.com/Ohlde_2026Seed…

Corn performance begins with uniform emergence. Spacing, seed placement, and early vigor contribute to stand consistency. When emergence is even, plant development tends to stay more uniform throughout the season.

Soybean planting will be here before we know it. Population, timing, seed treatments, and variety selection all influence how a crop gets started. You can explore observations from our 2025 Research Guide here: #page=18" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ohldeseed.com/research_farm/…

No two seasons ever look the same. That’s why we keep testing. Every season teaches us something new, and those lessons help us better understand how products perform across different environments.

A strong season starts before the first seed is planted. Seed placement, soil conditions, and hybrid fit all influence early-season uniformity. Even emergence is the result of intentional decisions made ahead of time. What’s top of mind as you prepare for planting?
