Choice 100 NK® Brand soybean offer now available to growers
Golden Valley, Minnesota
December 14, 2005

NK® Brand announces the Choice 100 NK Brand Soybean Offer to growers with two reward levels for the 2006 planting season.  The Choice 100 Offer is available on the entire portfolio of NK Brand Roundup Ready® soybeans.

The Level 1 reward option offers growers who purchase at least 100 units of NK Brand soybeans either a $150 bonus at the time of purchase or 100 units of 100 percent Replant Assurance.  The Level 2 reward option offers growers both of these incentives if they meet one or more of the following criteria:

  • Purchase 100 more units of NK Brand soybeans for the 2006 planting season than their 2005 planting season (with a minimum purchase requirement of 200 units from the same NK Brand dealer).
  • A new customer who purchases a minimum of 200 units of NK Brand soybeans.
  • A 100 percent NK Brand soybean customer who purchases at least 200 units of NK Brand soybeans.

Growers who make a qualifying NK Brand soybean purchase are eligible for one $150 bonus and a limit of 100 units of 100 percent Replant Assurance qualify for the Level 2 offer.  Additionally, a grower’s qualifying Choice 100 purchase must be made from their NK Brand dealer of 2005 record.  Early pay and financing options also are available.

“The Choice 100 program helps us minimize risk for our customers, while providing choices for the way they farm,” said Kurt Sieren, soybean product manager for NK Brand Seeds.  “Based on years of research, our soybeans consistently outperform other brands, and we believe this program will encourage more growers to give them a try.”

NK Brand soybeans deliver a five-year average yield advantage of 1.3 bu/A more than Pioneer and Asgrow, and 89 percent of growers report that NK Brand soybeans perform equal to or better than the competition.  NK Brand offers trusted genetics, and proven disease and pest resistance through more than 35 years of proprietary research.

“Growers have been very satisfied with the performance of NK Brand soybeans,” Sieren said. “Along with delivering high-quality genetics, NK Brand is committed to providing choices that fit customers’ needs.  The Choice 100 program allows them to choose the reward that best supports their operation.”
