Tennnessee Variety Test Program Survey

Author:  Comments Off on Tennnessee Variety Test Program Survey

Things have been busy this past month in the Tennessee variety test program as entries continue to roll in for our 2017 corn and soybean tests. This year we will be testing a total of 86 corn grain hybrids, 11 corn silage hybrids, and 195 soybean varieties across the state of Tennessee.

We know the variety test program is important to many of you. In order to make sure this program continues to meet your needs, we’d like some feedback from you!

If you are a Tennessee corn, soybean, wheat, or cotton producer, please take a few minutes to help us out by taking this survey. Producer – Variety Test Survey

If you are not a producer, but you provide folks with advice on variety selection (scout, retailer, seed company rep), then please take this survey. Industry – Variety Test Survey

Thanks for your help as we continue to figure out ways we can better serve you through our Tennessee variety test program!
