The 2020 First Harvest Farm Management, LLC “Competitive Seed Comparison Plot” Virtual Plot Tour took place with filming on August 20th and 21st. Our 12 corn hybrid plot partners, along with the representatives of the 3 Biologic products, and plot soil consultant RPM Soils, LLC participated in the virtual plot tour.

The 2020 plot tour went virtual this year due to ongoing concerns over Covid-19. As a service to our clients, plot partners, and local producers, we felt strongly that we wanted to find a way to continue the popular plot tour, without sacrificing safety for those normally attending the field day in person. A big thanks to Whitetail Properties Real Estate, LLC and November Studios, LLC for their guidance and expertise in filming and creating this years’ virtual plot tour!
The 2020 plot is designed to evaluate 12 different hybrids in three separate biologic trials. Each hybrid was planted using a control replication without the benefit of any biologic treatment, then in three following replications using NewLeaf Symbiotics “TerraSym 408” biologic, Loveland Products “Accomplish LM” biologic, and Valent USA “MycoApply Endoprime” biologic. All three replications were furrow applied in liquid form at the recommended product application rates. We invite you to drop us a line at joe@fhfm.biz, or text your name and email address to 217.248.1214 to receive harvest results comparing the 3 biologic replications.
