In Ontario (and across North America), Pioneer agronomists will be evaluating biologicals to first understand where the value lies with these products, and second, to learn what the ROI is – which will allow us to reduce stress in field crops. Stay tuned later this fall, as we will have more research data for the 2025 growing season. The frontier in agriculture looks promising! It is up to all of us to understand these advances and where the fit is to keep the yield needle moving onward and upward.
