Bayers new commercial Thanking farmers!

When will they realize that Mother Nature and increased fertilizer plays a huge roll in the performance of their product? "Genetics" may be there but without the help of the other ingredients its the equivalent of unleavened bread. Kinda tough and flat as opposed to a voluminous result. For Christ's sake Bayer.... you know you can't take all the credit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are the prices being thrown around here include Lumiderm?

When is enough enough? You just can't keep expecting more money for equal or less value!

Regarding the poor performance of Liberty, if you're starting with a decently clean field and not trying to clean up a disaster, I find it isn't just too bad. Spank whats there with Liberty(and Century) and hope the crop takes off and takes over. And don't chince on the water...Liberty is a contact herbicide. And spray on hot days. Canola is pretty hard to out compete when it gets going. Nothing is ever perfect but we know Liberty is far from perfection.

Retailers around here say they don't have any prices yet on seed.
Maybe they're to scared to say?

If everyone holds off buying the price will drop, there certainly wont be any seed shortage.

Liberty price was also very similar to last year. Up slightly but not by $10/acre. I talked with Bayer Rep and he said many many retailers are coming out of the gate high in pricing, plus add in Lumiderm and Jumpstart, and the Pod Shatter Trait and you definitely will be up there in price.
