Who else is ready for spring? Once March 20th hits, the countdown to seeding is officially on!

Controlling what’s already there is just the first step. Protecting what comes next is where the real advantage lies. GORDEX™ goes beyond a typical burnoff program: • Helps manage Group 2 & 9 resistant kochia while providing extended control of volunteer canola and other small-seeded broadleaf weeds • Dual modes of action designed to pair easily with glyphosate for cereal burnoff programs • 30-minute rainfast helps keep spraying on schedule during tight spring weather windows • Covers up to 160 acres per case, reducing fills and keeping the sprayer moving Talk with your local Sharpe’s location to see how GORDEX can strengthen your burnoff program this season. #GORDEXfor4H

We’re only two months away from hitting the field — believe it or not! 🌾 Now’s the time to make sure your crop plans are locked in. Reach out to your local Sharpe’s rep to get everything in place for the season.

Your canola deserves a fungicide that works as hard as you do.

This powerful duo gives you broad-spectrum protective and curative action against key early season canola diseases like blackleg. With MAXENTIS, you can spray with confidence across a wide window of application starting at 2-leaf, simplify your grower programming, and manage resistance with multi-mode activity that keeps you ahead of tough disease cycles.

You can skip seed treatment. But you’re also skipping early protection when your crop needs it most. Seed treatments help provide: • More uniform emergence • Early-season disease protection • Stronger stand establishment • Greater yield potential Ready to discover the treatment best suited for your seed? Ask your local Sharpe’s team.

Have you mapped out what your forage plans look like this season? Whether it’s rotation, variety selection, or adjusting based on what you saw last year, a little planning now can make things go a lot smoother.

Not all canola hybrids are built for the same dirt. Some shine on lighter soils. Others settle in and thrive where the ground runs heavier. Across Answer® Plot data and independent trials, CROPLAN® CP24L3C has proven it’s most comfortable on heavier land and throughout the Black soil zone. With strong standability, LibertyLink® flexibility, solid pod shatter tolerance, and a new source of clubroot protection, it’s a hybrid designed to hold its ground and push yield where it counts. Connect with your local Sharpe’s location to dial in where CP24L3C fits best on your acres and how to make it work for you this season.

Harvest is the best teacher if you listen. What showed up in your fields last fall can tell you a lot about what to plant in 2026. Lodging? Uneven emergence? Weed pressure? Each problem helps guide your seed strategy. Connect with your local Sharpe’s agronomist and turn what you saw last harvest into smarter seed decisions this spring.

Winter annuals aren’t waiting on your schedule. As soon as snow clears and soils begin to warm, they’re already growing and competing. Be ready to push back when conditions are right. 👊 A pre-seed burnoff plays a key role in starting the season clean and preserving that all-important weed-free window at seeding. Some early-season weeds come out hardened, with thicker, waxy leaf surfaces that make control more challenging. That’s where adding an adjuvant like StrikeLock® can make a difference—helping your herbicide work more effectively for a stronger, cleaner start. Want to learn how LockTech® adjuvants can support your spring weed control strategy? Connect with your local Sharpe’s location to learn more. *Always read and follow label directions.
