PROSEED SUNFLOWERS

Here's how quality alone sells Proseed

We think farmers appreciate superior yields and high oil premiums more than sales gimmicks. So at Proseed, we commit all our resources into breeding the best-performing hybrid sunflowers for the Great Plains.

We've streamlined our sales and management overhead to devote extensive effort toward what goes in our bags -- premium seed that delivers real value to farmers.

Field trials prove that we're in touch with the unique climate of our northern region. Proseed customers quickly discover we're right on the money with traits that area farmers find most important:  high yields, high oil content, ease of harvest, quick drydown, less trash, and resistance to this area's diseases and pests.

Based in North Dakota, Proseed is the only locally-owned company that has a sunflower breeding program.  Our roots are firmly planted in North America's premier sunflower growing area.
