Quarry
Grain is dedicated to measuring the economics of a crop
inputs against the potential yield that can be achieved.
Producers need to make sound decisions when purchasing
crop inputs, ensuring that what they are using is having
a positive effect on the crop.
We are
committed to keeping abreast of the latest agronomic
developments. By providing that information to the
producer it will assist them to make the best decisions,
from seeding to harvest, to maximize profits and
eliminate unnecessary costs.
We study top producing seeds and inputs through our own
plot trials and others in the Manitoba and Mid-Western
United States. This process allows us to pass on the
best quality information and suggestions to the grower.
Our crop inputs division - Quarry Seed - is
growing from year to year. We are always available to
discuss with the producer or end-user the most suited
methods for a variety of crops.
The Quarry Seed lineup of products includes:
Roundup Ready ® Soybeans
Conventional Corn
Confectionary Sunflower Varieties

What is the Roundup Ready®
Soybean Advantage?
1)
Newer Varieties are being developed with lower heat unit ratings:
The Western Canadian marketplace demands a variety in the 2300 -
2550 CHU range. Our varieties are in this range with high
performance yields.
2)
Easy to incorporate into your cropping plan & rotation: Roundup Ready®
Soybeans provide an option for crop rotation. Being Roundup
Ready
®
there is
no residual herbicide the following year. Volunteer
soybeans usually do not overwinter therefore not creating a problem
the next year. Also, soybeans leave residual nitrogen in
the soil to enhance next years crop.
3)
Non GMO soybean crop can develop weed problems the following year and
herbicide costs can add up quickly: Roundup®
offers the
ability to clean up your fields at realitivly low cost without
sacrificing yield.
4)
Marketing GMO soybeans in Manitoba is no longer an issue:
Many companies now buy GMO soybeans and ship them to crush markets.
Better yet, ask Quarry Grain to assist you on your marketing.
We export to top-notch processors in the U.S. with North Dakota Grain
Inspectors on-site therefore never having guesswork on your final
settlement. We also work with
Jordan
Mills here in Manitoba.
5)
Our Roundup Ready®
soybeans have been developed with many strong agronomic traits:
Iron Chlorosis Resistance gene & small seed size (lowering input
cost), Phytophthora gene, shatter resistance, and strong standability |
