Product/Service Name: Pedigreed by Penner Company: Pedigreed by Penner ; RR1, Box 19 ; Ph: (204) 829-3556 Pedigreed by Penner started seed production in 1980 with a 40 acre field of certified Century peas. Our pedigreed acreage has expanded to it's present level of around 2000 acres since that time. Contract seed multiplication adds another 50% to that total. Our seed plant was constructed in 1988, and now runs 24 hours a day from the start of the winter wheat harvest begins until mid-April, when we shut down in order to plant the 5000 acres we cover each year. In order to fill all the seed season needs of our expanding customer base, seed selection now includes canola lines from Invigor, Dekalb, and Canterra, corn from Pride and Dekalb, sunflowers from Interstate, soybeans from Northstar Genetics and Dekalb, forages from Brett-Young and FP Genetics, and inoculants from Becker Underwood and Novozymes. We also grow, process, and retail SeCan, Canterra, and FP Genetics cereals, oilseeds, and special crops. Knowledge of how this lineup will perform for our customers comes from our experience. Each year, we have trials to test and compare varieties under local conditions on our farm. "We Grow It - We Know It" is much more than a catch phrase. Our knowledge is first-hand, gained from our own weigh wagon, scales, and combine yield monitor and maps. Customer tours of our plots give in-season views of the plots, but it doesn't end there. Results are reported in newsletters, customer meetings, and innumerable telephone and face-to-face conversations. Our customers are not an interruption of our business - they are the reason for our business! Give us a call - we'd love to talk seed or farming with you. |
