K-405 versus Roundup version SB-405RR

When comparing K-405 to the roundup version SB-405RR, and the different trait versions available, we come up with SB-405RR yielding about 6 Bu. per acre less, 1/10 of a point wetter, and 1 whole point heavier in test weight than K-405. When you compare K-405 to SB-405RR/CRW, the trait version out yields K405 by 5 Bu. per acre, add 1 point of moisture, and increases test weight by 1.3 pounds. Comparing K-405 to the triple stack, the triple adds 30 Bu. of yield, equal moisture, and 1.1 pounds of test weight. In summary, plant the Triple Stack.

K-492, SB-492RR, and SB-492RR/YG Plus

When comparing K-492 with SB-492RR, and SB-492RR/YG Plus, things are a little fuzzier, as K-492 while being a very strong hybrid, is not related to the trait versions. So, in its maturity as a conventional, plant K-492. In traits, research shows the following results. CRWxRR shows a yield advantage over RR by 13 Bu. per acre. The Triple Stack shows a 26 Bu. per acre yield advantage over straight RR. In summary, use the traits that will help you realize the most profit per acre, and again, plant the Triple Stack.
