As planting season quickly approaches, the GCC Agronomy Team wants to ensure you're fully prepared for the successful year ahead. Whether you're finalizing fertilizer applications, selecting seed varieties, or considering herbicide strategies, we're here to support you every step of the way. Below are a few seasonal reminders and product offerings to assist with your spring planting. From our wide range of seeds to effective weed management solutions, GCC has the resources to help you maximize your yields this season.
By now, most producers have completed the essential fertilizer applications for fields designated for planting corn, soybeans, milo, and other crops. However, if you’re approaching the end of your fertilizer window, don’t hesitate to contact your GCC Agronomist for support with your remaining fertilizer needs.
As you prepare for planting, keep in mind that GCC offers a broad range of seed options. Our selection for corn, soybeans, and milo includes top brands like Dekalb/Asgrow, Croplan, Sorghum Partners, and more. Your GCC Agronomist is here to help you find the best seed for your operation and ensure the right fit for your goals.
Dealing with grass in your milo fields? The double-team system offers an effective solution. With this method, you can apply up to two treatments of First Act herbicide per season, with a maximum of 21 ounces, provided the milo is at least 11 inches tall at the time of application. Keep in mind that using a strong pre-emergence herbicide is still essential for optimal weed control.
Give your crops the best possible start this planting season with a starter fertilizer. Boost root development and support essential early growth with starter fertilizers like 10-34-0 and more.
You’re the expert in your operation, and the GCC Agronomy Team is here to assist in making this year’s crop a success. If you have any questions or need support, don’t hesitate to reach out to your GCC Agronomist. We’re ready to back you every step of the way.
