DuPont PioneerWelcome to the DuPont Pioneer Seed-to-Harvest Guide for 2016
It is my pleasure to work with you again for the coming season; this is something I don’t take
lightly. Your business and even more importantly your success are highly valued and are key
drivers here at DuPont Pioneer.
We strive to put the right product on the right acre for your operation. Each of you require
something a little different and that is why I am proud to present you with the 2016 product
guide where you’ll find detailed descriptions of all our seed products for 2016.
Among these are several new products that are the first of their kind in Western Canada. Pioneer Protector®
HarvestMax is the first Genuity® Roundup Ready® canola hybrid with the pod shatter resistance trait, designed to
reduce harvest risk and maximize yields.
Our new Pioneer Protector® Plus canola hybrid has built-in resistance to both sclerotinia and clubroot.
We are also the first company to bring early-maturity (70-day) corn hybrids and early-maturing T Series brand
soybean varieties to the Western Canadian market.
Research takes performance further
To meet your changing needs, we’re always looking ahead and developing new ideas and technologies.
Corn is becoming a more important crop for many prairie farmers. You’ve asked for high-yielding hybrids with
shorter maturities, to suit Western Canada’s growing conditions. This is a major focus of our research program.
In the coming years, we will make LibertyLink® herbicide tolerance commercially available in our elite canola
genetics and introduce Pioneer® brand Optimum® GLY, a novel glyphosate resistance trait.
Committed to your success
Meanwhile, the DuPont Pioneer team gets stronger by the year. Our agronomic know-how, local expertise and
personal commitment to our customers continue to be key reasons why growers choose DuPont Pioneer.
On behalf of all our people in Western Canada, thank you for making us a part of your success. Here’s to a safe,
productive and profitable 2016.
Greg StokkeBusiness Director, Western Canada Commercial UnitDuPont Pioneer
Western Canada was a different place nearly 80 years ago and farming was a very different business. Early settlers believed that Western Canada could be a nice place to make a living, so they dug in and went to work. DuPont Pioneer did the same thing, growing and selling seed to farmers to help them prosper.
Where research meets reality
Better seed in so many weighs
Proving Ground™ trials are our unique, large-scale testing effort in Western Canada. In 2015 we will have over 1,000 large-scale trials of canola, corn and soybeans planted across Western Canada. The number of trials we plant is currently more than any other seed company and continues to grow every year. The large amount of data we collect from these trials helps our Pioneer Hi-Bred sales team confidently position the right Pioneer® brand seed product on every acre you grow.
Large-scale trials for large-scale farming
Farming is large-scale so why shouldn’t our trials also be to scale. All Proving Ground™ trials for commercial products are conducted under real world conditions with a grower’s own management practices. This way, they provide data that is local and more relevant to growers in their own area.
Successful crops take more than great genetics
It takes a whole package of information and advice to maximize yield potential for crops. The Proving Ground™ trials aim to provide more information and resources to make growers more successful. That’s why we not only test products, we also thoroughly test traits, seed treatments and agronomic practices. The Proving Ground™ trials help us to better understand and validate the true value of proprietary traits so we can work with our customers to better position our products on their farms. By testing different agronomic practices – both new and old – it helps us learn more about the factors that impact yield.

The Proving GroundTM
The best field management: yours. The finest seed genetics: ours. How high can your canola, corn or
soybean yields go? We want to find out and reward the highest yielders.
The Proving Ground™ 2015 Yield Challenge is a great opportunity to learn about maximizing yields, try new production techniques, share ideas and have some fun. Who’s in?
The contest is open to any Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta or British Columbia grower who purchased Pioneer® brand canola, corn or soybean seed through a local Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representative. Use the management practices of your choice to produce the highest-yielding crop you can, then see how you stack up with the best in the West.
We’ll be giving out all kinds of regional and local prizes for the highest canola, corn or soybean yields within a given area. Western Canada’s overall top yielder under The Proving Ground™ 2015 Yield Challenge will win the Grand Prize.
Grand Prize: A trip for two to attend the final curling weekend of the 2016 Tim Hortons Brier in Ottawa, Ontario.

DuPont Pioneer is taking canola further with the introducton of two new Pioneer Protector® canola seed products. Pioneer® Protector Plus is the first canola hybrid with Clubroot and Sclerotinia Resistance built right into the seed. This protects canola from these damaging diseases – and protects your investment at harvest. Second, to ensure you get every bushel you’ve got coming, consider new Pioneer Protector® HarvestMax trait. It helps reduce the risk of pod shatter and with it, the risk of harvest-related losses in your canola.
Derek Erb Pioneer Hi-Bred Sales representative Oak Bluff, Manitoba
Pioneer Protector® traits
DuPont Pioneer has always led the way in providing innovative genetics with high yield potential and solid agronomics that anticipate grower needs.
In fact, DuPont Pioneer was the first company to offer hybrids with resistance to the two most economically significant diseases in canola – sclerotinia and clubroot.
For your 2016 canola crop, we’re taking innovation a step further. Introducing two NEW and exciting Pioneer Protector® canola seed products.
Pioneer Protector® PlusDuPont Pioneer is the first and only company to market a canola hybrid in Western Canada with built-in disease protection from both sclerotinia AND clubroot.
Pioneer Protector® HarvestMaxDuPont Pioneer is the first company to introduce a Genuity® Roundup Ready® canola hybrid with pod shatter resistance traits that can reduce the risk of harvest losses due to pod shatter and pod drop.
Pioneer Protector® Sclerotinia* Since its introduction in 2009, DuPont Pioneer continues to introduce high yielding canola hybrids with built-in sclerotinia resistance for Western Canadian growers.
Pioneer Protector® ClubrootBack in 2009, DuPont Pioneer was the first to introduce Clubroot resistant canola hybrids into the market with high yield potential and solid agronomics.
Look for the Pioneer Protector® logo on high-performing canola hybrids this season. It’s a symbol of canola seed traits that protect your yield and your business.
Elite genetics run in the Protector® family.

*Field results show that Pioneer Protector® Sclerotinia Resistance can reduce the incidence of sclerotinia in a canola crop by over 60%. Individual results may vary. Depending on environmental and agronomic conditions, growers planting Pioneer Protector® Sclerotinia Resistant hybrids may still require a fungicide application to manage sclerotinia in their crop.
Pioneer Protector® traits
Pioneer Protector® Plus. Unlike standard canola hybrids, Pioneer Protector® Plus canola hybrids have built-in protection against both sclerotinia and clubroot in one convenient, high-yielding package.
Pioneer Protector® HarvestMax. This is the first Pioneer Protector® brand canola hybrid with technology to reduce pod shatter. This provides a wider window at harvest so that growers have the flexibility to straight cut or delay swathing so more pods can fill. It all adds up to more seed in the bin. With less pod shatter, Pioneer Protector® HarvestMax can also reduce the potential for volunteer canola the next growing season.

Enhanced phosphate availability results in increased root growth and increased leaf surface area. As a result, canola inoculated with JumpStart® may flower earlier, have an increased number of pods and pod-bearing branches, and have earlier, more uniform maturity meaning less green seed. Ultimately, you can help your canola crop reach its full potential.
JumpStart® in canola provides improved phosphate availability, which leads to: • Enhancedrootandshootdevelopment • Improvedstresstolerance • Earlier,moreuniformmaturity • Improvedyieldpotential
JumpStart® inoculant helps to increase the availability of soil and fertilizer phosphate
Add the control of Helix®Vibrance® seed treatment and you have a seed treatment that helps canola unleash its full potential. Helix®Vibrance® seed treatment protects canola’s genetic capacity, producing more vigorous emergence and healthier root systems. The result: enhanced crop establishment and improved yield potential.

Yield. Quality. Profit. It’s all about the harvest. As a crop producer, all your hard work points in one direction: toward harvest.
From seed selection to precision planting to crop protection, it’s all about getting more yield and
better quality in the fall. It’s about rocking your harvest.
Our new Pioneer Protector® Plus canola hybrid gives you clubroot and sclerotinia resistance in one
convenient and high-performing package – for better disease protection and healthier seed. Our new
Pioneer Protector® HarvestMax canola hybrid helps reduce the risk of losses at harvest, and ultimately
puts more seed in your bin.
That’s not all. We’re also launching exciting new corn hybrids built specifically for Western Canadian
growers, with ultra-early maturity and built-in protection from above-ground insects. These new corn
seed products, which contain our Optimum® AcreMax® technology, deliver the simplicity and peace
of mind you need when planting corn. Beyond these corn innovations, DuPont Pioneer will bring you
our high-performing T-Series soybeans, the earliest soybeans on the market.
Throughout the 2015 growing season, we’ll be celebrating everything you do to achieve top quality
and high yields for your crops.
For you, and for DuPont Pioneer, this is the year to #rockyourharvest.
Prairie farmers are taking agriculture in bold new directions, producing more yield and higher quality on far less land than farmers could 80 years ago. Similarly, DuPont Pioneer is breaking new ground in plant genetics, in technology and in the agronomic advice of the Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representatives who live alongside their customers. Our experts are grown locally.

Canola
“I won the yield challenge with Pioneer® hybrid 45H33. I think it was a combination of being lucky with good weather and also straight cutting the canola. I think I probably gained about 7 bu/ac by straight cutting my canola this year. Up until last year I had no clubroot at all, but it is spread pretty easily. It’s just nice knowing that I’m protected from clubroot right from the seed. We just had great results with Pioneer® hybrid 45H33. I like using Pioneer® canola hybrids because of the reliability of the products and the support of the reps. My rep helps me out a lot – all the way from seeding to harvest.”
“I think the reason we won the yield challenge was just basically the good growing year we had and the seed that we used. I grew Pioneer® hybrid 45S56 last year and I was quite happy with it compared to other seed I’ve used. We have a lot of sclerotinia in our area so I decided to go with Pioneer® hybrid 45S56 to see the difference it would make. When I swathed and combined I saw a huge difference – it probably contributed to the challenge-winning yield I got. I won’t grow any other type of canola now other than Pioneer® brand!“
“In order to get our challenge-winning yield with Pioneer® hybrid 39D97, we focused on keeping disease under control, having a good rotation, using minimum till, a good fertility program and worked to conserve moisture. For me, Pioneer® hybrid 39D97 is always right in the top yielding varieties that I’ve grown. I’ve tried varieties from other companies and find that they don’t dry down as well as 39D97 - there is the extra cost involved in that. I like working with my local Pioneer Hi-bred sales representative because he is very knowledgeable and helps me out wherever I need. They are a great company to deal with!”
“The reason I choose Pioneer® brand corn is that the products are really good and what tips it over for me is that Pioneer® hybrid P7443R yields really well AND is drought tolerant. Yes – it rained a lot where we are in the last couple years but some day it’s going to go dry and I’m hoping that that will increase our yield on those dry years. Pioneer® hybrid P7443R is the best variety out there for us.”

How to Calculate Pure Live Alfalfa Seed
Pure live seed is the seed you can expect to germinate and contribute to stand establishment. Pure live seed can
be calculated from information on the alfalfa seed bag tag. Pure live seed is the percent pure seed multiplied by the
percent total germination (germ + hard seed), divided by 100. Hard seed is viable seed that does not germinate within
the seven day germination test period. Hard seed is included in the total germination number on the seed bag tag and
it needs to be included in the pure live seed calculation.
Example calculation of Pure Live Seed:
• Pioneer®brandalfalfaseedtaginfo:90%pureseedx90%germination+hardseed=81%pureliveseed
• Heavy-coatedcompetitoralfalfaseedtaginfo:66%pureseedx90%TotalGerm+hardseed=59%pure
live seed
DuPontPioneerscarifiesmostseedlotsinordertokeephardseedamountat10%orlessoffinishedseed.Higher
percent hard seed in some competitive seed bags tends to indicate a lack of scarification, and may lead to a lengthier
stand establishment period.

2 CRM (Comparative Relative Maturity): There is not an industry standard for maturity ratings so comparing product maturity and harvest moisture ratings between companies is usually difficult. Use the CRM rating to compare Pioneer products with competitive products of a similar maturity and harvest moisture. CRM ratings, and harvest moistures, for products within a family may vary slightly, depending upon the level of insect (ECB and CRW) infestation. Conventional and straight products with the RR2 gene within a family will usually be 1-2 CRMs earlier than indicated, when insect infestations are moderate to heavy. One CRM difference is about 1/2 point of moisture difference at harvest.
3 PHYSIOLOGICAL CRM: Measures differences in maturity to zero milkline stage. To help decide if a new product fits your area’s growing season, compare its physiological CRM to a product that you plant or one that is successfully used in your area.
4 GDUs TO PHYSIOLOGICAL MATURITY: Measures differences in growing degree units (GDUs) required to zero milkline stage. To help decide if a new product fits your area’s growing season, compare its GDUs to physiological maturity to a product that you plant or one that is successfully used in your area.
5 GRAIN DRYDOWN: Compares products of similar maturity for rate of moisture loss during grain drydown. A higher score indicates-faster drydown. A lower score indicates slower drydown, or a wider opportunity for silage and high-moisture corn harvest.
6 STRESS EMERGENCE: All products are expected to establish normal stands under average soil conditions. Stress emergence is a measure of the genetic ability or potential to emerge in the stressful environmental conditions of cold, wet soils or short periods of severe low temperatures, relative to other Pioneer products. Ratings of 7-9 indicate very good potential to establish normal stands under such conditions; a rating of 5-6 indicates average potential to establish normal stands under moderate stress conditions; and ratings of 1-4 indicate the product has below average potential to establish normal stands under stress and should not be used if severe cold conditions are expected immediately after planting. Stress emergence is not a rating for seedling disease susceptibility, early growth or speed of emergence.
7 STAYGREEN: Indicator of late-season plant health. A higher score indicates ability to survive farther into the growing season. Scores are taken near grain physiological maturity (zero kernel milkline) stage.
8 DROUGHT TOLERANCE: Drought tolerance is a complex trait, determined by a platform’s ability to maintain yield in limited moisture environments. A higher score indicates the potential for higher yields vs. other platforms of similar maturity in limited moisture environments.
9 HIGH RESIDUE SUITABILITY: HS - Highly Suitable; S - Suitable; X - Poorly Suited. Suitability rating based on field observations and a weighted calculation of gray leaf spot, stress emergence, anthracnose stalk rot, northern corn leaf blight, and Diplodia ear rot scores. High Residue Suitability ratings may vary by environment and geography.
10 EAR FLEX: Score reflects the ability of a product to flex ear size as plant density is reduced or as growing conditions improve.
11 TEST WEIGHT: Higher score indicates heavier test weight.
12 PLANT HEIGHT: 9 = Very Tall; 1 = Short
13 EAR HEIGHT: 9 = High; 1 = Low

14 MID-SEASON BRITTLE STALK: Ratings determined by frequency and severity of stalk snappage at lower to middle stalk internodes from conditions usually favored by rapid or optimum growth. Relative response of products can be affected by planting date, stage of growth, rate of growth, wind severity and other variables. Scores derived from both natural observations and artificial evaluation immediately prior to tasseling. NOTE: Scores do not reflect snappage enhanced by or due to herbicide interaction. The use of growth regulator herbicides such as 2,4-D and dicamba can increase the brittle snap potential of corn products. Products with lower brittle stalk ratings will require more caution and have a higher risk associated with the use of growth regulator herbicides. Early application, proper rates and application methods, along with both product and herbicide selection can help reduce this risk. BRITTLE STALK PRECAUTION: In areas with higher potential for brittle stalk breakage, growers must balance the risk of planting products with brittle stalk ratings of less than 4 against the overall performance of more resistant products with higher ratings. All products have a period of susceptibility to brittle stalk. Products with below average ratings may have a longer period of susceptibil-ity, or may experience more severe breakage relative to products with higher scores during period of susceptibility.
15 GIBBERELLA EAR ROT CAUTION: Ratings based upon visual symptoms at harvest. If Gibberella ear rot has caused significant damage in the past, growers should consider planting only products with at least moderate Gibberella ear rot ratings of 5 or higher.
16 PLATFORM SILAGE CRM (Silage Comparative Relative Maturity): With no industry standard for silage maturity, comparing maturity and harvest moisture among corn-for-silage products is difficult. DuPont Pioneer silage CRM ratings provide a relative comparison among Pioneer products of rates at which products reach harvestable whole-plant moistures. It is on the same scale as the CRM rating provided for grain-corn products and does not represent actual days from planting or emergence to harvest moisture or half milkline.
17 SILAGE YIELD FOR MATURITY: Based on tons/acre (adjusted to 30% dry matter) from multi-year comparison of products within a maturity range not exceeding 5 silage CRM units.
18 STARCH AND SUGAR, %: Percent starch and soluble sugars (DM basis) in the whole-plant sample predicted by NIRS.
19 FIBER DIGESTIBILITY: Enzymatic estimate of percent degradable neutral detergent fiber (NDF) as a percent of total NDF in whole plant sample, predicted by NIRS.
20 WHOLE-PLANT DIGESTIBILITY: Based on whole-plant digestibility measurements (in vitro-cellulase) and nutrient profiles (starch, acid detergent fiber), as predicted by Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS).
21 SILAGE CRUDE PROTEIN: Based on the amount of crude protein in the whole plant, predicted by NIRS.
22 MILK PER ACRE: Ratings: 9 = Outstanding; 1 = Poor, based on University of Wisconsin MILK2006 utilizing silage yield, nutrient content and digestibility.
23 MILK PER TON: Ratings: 9 = Outstanding; 1 = Poor, based on University of Wisconsin MILK2006 utilizing silage nutrient content and digestibility.
24 BEEF PER ACRE: Ratings: 9 = Outstanding; 1 = Poor, based on University of Wisconsin MILK2006 utilizing silage yield, nutrient content and digestibility.
25 BEEF PER TON: Ratings: 9 = Outstanding; 1 = Poor, based on University of Wisconsin MILK2006 utilizing silage nutrient content and digestibility.
DISEASE PRECAUTION: Grower should balance product yield potential, product maturity and cultural practice selection against their anticipated risk of a specific disease and need for resistance. In high disease-risk conditions, consider planting products with at least moderate resistance ratings of 4 or higher to help reduce risk. When susceptible products with disease ratings of 1 to 3 are planted in conditions of high disease pressure, the grower assumes a higher level of risk. If conditions are severe, even products rated as resistant can be adversely affected. Independent of yield reduction, diseases can predispose plants to secondary diseases such as stalk rots. This requires individual field and product monitoring for stalk stability and timely harvest when warranted.
DISEASE & PEST RATINGS: 8-9 = Highly Resistant; 6-7 = Resistant; 4-5 = Moderately Resistant; 1-3 = Susceptible; PAA = Predicts Above Average; PA = Predicts Average; PBA = Predicts Below Average; Blank = Insufficient Data.

Trait ratings provide key information useful in selection and management of Pioneer® brand products in your area. Scores are based on testing through 2014 harvest and were the latest available at time of printing. Some scores may change after 2015 harvest. Information and ratings are based on average performance across area of adaptation under normal conditions, over a wide range of both climate and soil types, and may not predict future results.

traits and scores for each Pioneer brand product and for product placement and management suggestions specific to your operation and local conditions.
NUMERIC RATINGS: 9 = Excellent; 1 = Poor; Blank = Insufficient Data or variety not tested for that particular trait.
1 HERBICIDE RESISTANCE: Always follow grain marketing, stewardship practices and pesticide label directions. Varieties with the original Roundup Ready® trait (RR) and the Genuity® Roundup Ready 2 Yield® (RR2Y) trait contain genes that confer tolerance to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup® brand agricultural herbicides. Roundup® brand agricultural herbicides will kill crops that are not tolerant to glyphosate. Genuity®, Roundup®, Roundup Ready® and Roundup Ready 2 Yield® are registered trademarks of Monsanto Technology LLC used under license. Individual results may vary, and performance may vary from location to location and from year to year. This result may not be an indicator of results you may obtain as local growing, soil and weather conditions may vary. Growers should evaluate data from multiple locations and years whenever possible.
2 RELATIVE MATURITY: Shows the relative maturity group rating, with the first digit representing the general maturity group, and the second digit showing relative maturity within the group on a scale of 0 to 9, with 0 early and 9 late. For example, a soybean product with a relative maturity rating of 17 would be a mid-late product in Group 1 maturity.
3 FIELD EMERGENCE: Rating based on deep planting at sub-optimal temperatures. 7-9 = Excellent; 4-6 = Average; 1-3 = Below Average
4 HYPOCOTYL LENGTH: Ratings based on relative length of hypocotyls, which is the portion of the seedling between the cotyledons and the root. S = Short; M = Medium; L = Long
5 PHYTOPHTHORA RESISTANCE GENE:
(-) = No specific gene for resistance.
Rps 1c = Provides resistance to races 1-3, 6-11, 13, 15, 17, 21, 23, 24, 26, 28-30, 32, 34, 36.
Rps 1k = Provides resistance to races 1-11, 13-15, 17, 18, 21-24, 26, 36, 37.
6 PHYTOPHTHORA FIELD TOLERANCE: Products with high tolerance scores have demonstrated an ability to thrive in the presence of Phytophthora races to which they lack specific resistance. In some products, tolerance is expressed only after the early seedling growth stage, making such products susceptible to damping off during emergence and early seed growth.
7 WHITE MOLD: Scores based on DuPont Pioneer research observations of comparative white mold tolerance among various soybean products across multiple locations and years. All products are capable of developing white mold symptoms under severe infestations. To our knowledge, there are no totally resistant products in the industry. However, differences exist in the ability of products to tolerate white mold (i.e. the rate at which the infection develops and the extent of damage it causes). These scores reflect those differences.
8 CANOPY WIDTH: 9 = Extremely bushy; 1 = Very narrow
9 SHATTERING: 9 = Excellent tolerance to shattering; 1 = Poor tolerance to shattering
10 PLANT HEIGHT FOR MATURITY: 9 = Tall; 1 = Short
11 SEED SIZE RANGE: Expressed in seeds per pound under normal growing conditions. Range is calculated over multiple years and locations. Since seed size may vary by growing season and region, check the “seeds/pound” information printed on the bag.
12 FLOWER COLOUR: P = Purple; W = White
13 PUBESCENCE COLOUR: T = Tawny; G = Gray; L = Light tawny; M = Mixed
14 HILA COLOUR: BL = Black; BR = Brown; TN = Tan; G = Gray; IB = Imperfect black; BF = Buff; Y = Yellow (Clear); M = Mixed
15 POD COLOUR: BR = Brown; TN = Tan
Sunflowers FootnotesTrait ratings provide key information useful in selection and management of Pioneer® brand products in your area. Scores are based on period-of-years testing through 2013 harvest and were the latest available at time of printing. Some scores may change after 2014 harvest. Contact your Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representative before planting for the latest trait rating information.
IMPORTANT: Information and ratings are based on comparisons with other Pioneer® brand products, not competitive products. Information and ratings are assigned by DuPont Pioneer Agronomists and Research Managers, based on average performance across area of adaptation under normal conditions, over a wide range of both climate and soil types, and may not predict future results. Product responses are variable and subject to any number of environmental, disease and pest pressures. Please use this information as only part of your product positioning decision. Refer to www.pioneer.com/products or contact a Pioneer Hi-Bred Sales Representative for the latest and most complete listing of traits and scores for each Pioneer® brand product and for product placement and management suggestions specific to your operation and local conditions.
RATINGS: 9 = Excellent; 1 = Poor; Blank = Insufficient Data.
DISEASE PRECAUTION: Grower should balance hybrid yield potential, hybrid maturity and cultural practice against anticipated risk of a specific disease and need for resistance. In high disease risk conditions, consider planting hybrids with at least a rating of 6 or higher to help reduce risk. When hybrids with disease ratings of 1 to 5 are planted in conditions of high disease pressure, the grower assumes a higher level of risk. If conditions are severe, even hybrids rated as resistant can be adversely affected. Independent of yield reduction, diseases can predispose plants to secondary diseases such as stalk rots. This requires individual field and hybrid monitoring for stalk stability and timely harvest when warranted.
DISEASE RATINGS: 9-8 = Highly Resistant; 7-6 = Resistant; 5-4 = Moderately Resistant; 3-1 = Susceptible; Blank = Insufficient Data.
33
1 SUNFLOWER TYPE: The DuPont™ ExpressSun® trait provides resistance to Tribenuron methyl. WARNING: The DuPont™ ExpressSun® trait will safeguard this hybrid ONLY against applications of Tribenuron methyl, when applied at labeled rates. The DuPont™ ExpressSun® trait WILL NOT safeguard this hybrid against applications of other herbicides which require a different herbicide resistance trait. Always read and follow herbicide label instructions prior to use. APPLICATIONS OF INCOMPATIBLE HERBICIDES TO THIS HYBRID COULD RESULT IN TOTAL CROP LOSS.
2 RM (RELATIVE MATURITY): With no industry standard for maturity ratings, comparing hybrid maturity and harvest moisture ratings between companies is usually difficult. Use the RM rating to compare Pioneer(R) hybrids of a similar maturity and harvest moisture.
3 EMERGENCE: Ratings taken when first true leaf is visible.
4 PLANT HEIGHT: Short stature is desirable. 9 = Short; 1 = Tall
5 STEM CURVATURE: 9 = Erect; 8 = Semi-Erect (preferred); 7 = Semi-Pendulous (preferred); 6 = Pendulous; 5= Fully Pendulous
6 MIDGE SCORE: To our knowledge, there are no fully resistant hybrids in this industry. However, differences exist in the ability to tolerate insect pressure. These scores reflect those differences. Heavy midge pressure can cause extensive damage to any hybrid.
7 DOWNY MILDEW RACE RESISTANCE: Indicates downy mildew resistance to the races identified.
8 PCT OVER 13: Using a 13/64th screen, oilseed types are divided by kernel size. 9 = high percentage over 13/64; 1 = low percentage.
Alfalfa Footnotes**All Pioneer products are varieties unless designated with Brand, in which case it is comprised of more than one Pioneer® brand variety.
Agronomic ratings based on period-of-years testing through 2013 harvest. Pest resistance, dormancy and winterhardiness ratings based on standard test protocols prescribed by the North American Alfalfa Improvement Conference (NAAIC). Ratings may change over additional years of data collection, or if NAAIC protocols change. Contact your Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representative before planting for the latest trait rating information.
IMPORTANT: Information and ratings are based on comparisons with other Pioneer® brand varieties, not competitive varieties. Information and ratings are assigned by DuPont Pioneer Agronomists and Research Managers, based on average performance across area of adaptation under normal conditions, over a wide range of both climate and soil types, and may not predict future results. Product responses are variable and subject to any number of environmental, disease and pest pressures. Please use this information as only part of your product positioning decision.

RATINGS: 9 = Outstanding; 1 = Poor; Blank = Insufficient Data.
DISEASE/PEST RESISTANCE KEY: HR = Highly Resistant; R = Resistant; MR = Moderately Resistant; LR = Low Resistance; S = Susceptible; Blank = Insufficient Data.
1 WINTERHARDINESS: EH = Extremely Hardy; VH = Very Hardy; H = Hardy; MH = Moderately Hardy; NH = Non-hardy; VNH = Very Non-hardy.
2 DISEASE RESISTANCE INDEX: DRI is a disease index based on the following pests: Bacterial wilt, Verticillium wilt, Fusarium wilt, Anthracnose, Phytophthora and Aphanomyces (Race 1) and Aphanomyces (Race 2). HR = 5 points; R = 4 points; MR = 3 points; LR = 2 points; S = 1 point. Highest possible DRI = 35 points.
3 STANDABILITY/LODGING RESISTANCE: Score based on standard test requirements where rating classes are assigned as R = Resistant, MR = Moderate Resistant and S = Susceptible.
Inoculants FootnotesIMPORTANT: Information and ratings are based on relative comparisons with other Sila-Bac® brand inoculants within each specific crop, not competitive products. Information and ratings are assigned by DuPont Pioneer Forage Additive Research, based on average performance across area of use under normal conditions, over a wide range of both environment and management conditions, and may not predict future results. Product responses are variable and subject to any number of environmental and management conditions. Please use this information as only part of your product positioning decision. Refer to www.pioneer.com or contact a Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representative for the latest and most complete listing of traits and scores for each Sila-Bac brand product. Fermentation: Rate and extent of pH decline and the composition of fermentation acids occurring in silage. Bunklife: Relative heat develop-ment compared to ambient temperature. Bunklife considers both how quickly silage begins to heat and the amount of heat generated while remaining above ambient temperature. Fibre Digestibility: The digestibility of neutral detergent fibre (NDF) by the ruminant animal expressed as a percentage of the total NDF.
