Warm Days,Cool Nights Helping Farmers

 
G3 Weather and Crop Specialist Bruce Burnett says the mild conditions we're experiencing should continue for at least the next few days.
 
He notes it's expected to cool down this week, but temperatures will still be above normal.
 
It's exactly the type of weather farmers are looking for.
 
“There is flooding concerns because the snowpack is quite heavy," commented Burnett. "These conditions however are also ideal because what we're seeing is a lot of warmth in the day, but freezing fairly substantially in the evening. So that's reducing the snowpack but it's not causing a quick melt by any means.”

Most seed companies see testing as a regulatory box to check.

But what if it’s actually one of your strongest competitive advantages?

In this conversation with Amanda Patin, North America Business Development Director for US Crop Science at SGS, we dig into what seed testing really reveals, far beyond germination and a lab report. From seed vigor and mechanical damage to stress performance and pathogen pressure, Patin explains how deeper testing can help companies differentiate their seed, protect value, and drive real return on investment.

If seed testing is something you only think about when you have to, this discussion might change how you see and use it.
