    The Stine® 3-2-1 Advantage

    November 10, 2022

    Posted by Stine Seed in Stine News

    Join Stine® in our countdown for success in 2023. We’ve always held firm that our line of Enlist E3® soybeans is unmatched in the industry. And just as growers are mapping out their 2023 seed plans, we have the numbers to show our products are leading edge. We call it the Stine 3-2-1 Advantage — data-backed research that proves we have the best of the best when it comes to soybean genetics.

    “Stine is synonymous with soybeans and for good reason,” says Myron Stine, company president. “We have the industry’s largest private seed breeding program, which means we’re continuously developing new, higher-performing seed. But even more important is that we understand the value of data. We know that’s what growers want and need to help them make educated decisions for their farms. Now, we’re excited to share our 3-2-1 Advantage. It’s research growers can trust from a brand that cares deeply about their success.” 

    Let the countdown begin.

    Stine Enlist E3 soybean lines are 3 bushels/acre better compared to the leading competing trait platform. In 2021, Stine conducted 128 side-by-side comparisons putting Stine enlist E3 against the leading competing trait and brand (Asgrow® XtendFlex® soybeans). These plots were properly conducted to ensure a fair playing field for both soybean brands, which means all soybeans were planted in the same location at the same population and row spacing and with the same equipment. Only some like maturities were compared. Stine Enlist E3 genetics had a 73% win rate over the leading competitor trait and brand, resulting in a 3.3-bushel advantage. Even more, our newest E-series line of Enlist E3 soybeans had a 78% win rate versus the competition, resulting in a 4.8-bushel advantage (more than $50/acre profit potential).

    All Stine soybean lines are 2 bushels/acre better compared to all competing brands. In 2021, we received data from 306 Stine customers who planted side-by-side field comparisons.. It’s important to note that these were not our plots, but fields planted by growers who not only planted Stine, but also a variety of other competitors. They, too, used the same location, same field type, same machinery, planting population, and row width for each brand and trait platform. At the end of the day, Stine brand soybeans outperformed the competition 72% of the time, coming in at an average of 60.5 bushels/acre compared to other brands at 58.5 bushels/acre. This is a 2-bushel advantage (or $26.00/acre profit potential).

    Stine leads the industry in soybean genetics, and we are committed to being No. 1 not only in product performance but also in quality and customer service.

    “Stine wants to be No. 1 and prove that Stine cares more,” says Myron. “Stine is the fourth largest soybean brand and the largest private Enlist E3 soybean brand. No one understands soybeans better than we do. It is our goal to also be No. 1 in product quality and customer service. This is a huge initiative for us, and we look forward to proving it in 2023.”

    Growers need the data to make smart decisions on their farms. Stine’s 3-2-1 Advantage is what sets us apart in the soybean game. For more information on our 3-2-1 Advantage or to learn about our 2023 soybean lineup, contact your local Stine sales rep or regional sales agronomist.
