Genetic Research

Greenhouses

Greenhouses allow us to introduce traits into selected hybrids year around. Therefore, we can advance generations of new genetics faster, which results in higher yields for farmers. Each greenhouse can produce 3.5 crops each year.

Corn Breeding

At Beck's we have worked very hard to build the most elite corn breeding program in the Eastern Corn Belt. We utilize the latest breeding techniques, including the Dihaploid method, for Inbred line development. As a result, Beck's can quickly deliver agronomically sound products with more yield and profitability for farmers. Our goal is to develop products that are best suited for growers in our marketing area.

Dihaploid Breeding

This method produces pure parent lines in one generation, compared to 3-5 years using conventional methods. By increasing the speed to develop pure lines, we can develop better yielding hybrids that are ready for farmers, faster!

Is your seed company hitting the mark? darts
Most national seed companies must find products that fit broad geographic areas, which often "miss the mark" in farmers' specific fields. At Beck's, we hit the "bull's-eye" when it comes to developing products that are best suited for farmers' individual needs. Since we are a regional seed company, we source and breed genetics that are best suited for farmers in our marketing area. Experience the Difference. Plant Beck's.
